1 — NGS MB1560 — Cleveland, US

This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network of control points that form the foundation of the United States' geodetic infrastructure. Located near Cleveland, Ohio at coordinates 41.52961° N, 81.63539° W, this trig point serves as a reference station for surveying and mapping activities across the region. Triangulation stations of this type were established to provide accurate horizontal control for large-scale surveys and serve as benchmarks for subsequent surveying work. The point's position within the NGS network allows surveyors and engineers to reference their local measurements against a consistent national datum. Verification and documentation of such control points remain valuable for maintaining survey accuracy and continuity. Modern positioning technologies including GPS and differential techniques depend on the existence and reliable characterization of established reference stations. This point contributes to the broader geodetic framework supporting infrastructure development, mapping, and spatial data collection in its area.
