# 800 NJGS — NGS KV0492 — Hackensack, US This triangulation point, located at 40.8917°N, 74.0442°W in Hackensack, New Jersey, is a first-order geodetic control station maintained by the National Geodetic Survey. Established as part of the classical triangulation network, the monument provides a fundamental reference at 6.2 meters elevation for regional survey work. The station supports RTK base operations, multi-session static GNSS surveys for high-precision positioning, and vertical control via differential leveling circuits. Its NGS designation (KV0492) and New Jersey Geodetic Survey classification ensure compatibility with legacy network data, making it valuable for network densification projects, local datum connections, and verification of modern satellite-based surveys across the Northern New Jersey corridor.
