1 — NGS CE0434 — El Paso, US

This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's horizontal control network, which establishes precise geodetic positions across the United States. Located near El Paso, Texas, at coordinates 31.76852° N, 106.51174° W, this trig point serves as a reference for surveying, mapping, and engineering projects throughout the region. Triangulation stations of this type were historically established to create a framework of known positions used in large-scale surveys and cartographic work. Modern surveyors and engineers rely on documented benchmark networks to verify measurements, conduct boundary surveys, and support infrastructure development. The verification and maintenance of such geodetic control points remains important for ensuring accuracy in land surveying, infrastructure planning, and geospatial analysis. Recording the precise location and elevation data of these monuments helps preserve the integrity of the national geodetic reference system.
