This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network, which establishes the foundational control for surveying and mapping across the United States. Located near Moraga, California, at coordinates 37.87222° N, 122.12361° W, this trig point functions as a horizontal control reference for regional surveys and geospatial projects. Triangulation stations of this type traditionally served as intervisible points used in classical geodetic networks to establish accurate positions across larger areas. The NGS maintains records of such benchmarks to support land surveying, engineering projects, and geographic information systems. Verification and documentation of existing control points remain valuable for surveying professionals conducting boundary determinations, construction layout, and precision mapping. Historical benchmark recovery work helps preserve the integrity of the geodetic network for contemporary and future applications.
