This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey network, which establishes and maintains the fundamental geodetic control for the United States. Located near Portland, Oregon at coordinates 45.54611°N, 122.57861°W, this trig point serves as a reference control station for surveying and mapping activities throughout its region. Triangulation stations like this provide monumented positions of known horizontal accuracy, enabling surveyors to conduct precise cadastral surveys, engineering projects, and geographic information system development. The NGS network integrates these control points into a coordinated system supporting both public works and private surveying practice. Verification and documentation of such benchmarks remains essential for maintaining survey integrity across generations. Surveyors should confirm the station's physical condition and positional accuracy before use in professional work. Contributions of current observations to NGS help sustain this critical infrastructure.
