This is a triangulation station in the National Geodetic Survey network, located in the Nashville, Tennessee region at coordinates 36.17111°N, 86.77000°W. Trig stations serve as foundational control points for surveying and mapping operations across the United States. These monuments establish precise horizontal positions within the national coordinate reference system, enabling cadastral surveys, infrastructure development, and geospatial analysis throughout their service areas. NGS maintains the national geodetic infrastructure through networks of such reference points, which support both public and private surveying activities. The elevation for this particular station has not been recorded in available documentation. Verification and documentation of existing control points remain valuable for surveyors requiring reliable positions, particularly in regions where modern survey infrastructure may require tie-in to established horizontal datums.
