This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network, which establishes the fundamental control framework for surveying and mapping across the United States. Located near Vancouver, Washington, at coordinates 45.60167°, -122.56139°, this trig point serves as a reference monument for horizontal geodetic control. Triangulation stations of this type provide precise positional data essential for surveyors, engineers, and cartographers conducting work throughout the Pacific Northwest region. The monumentation typically consists of a marked reference point from which distances and angles to other control points were historically measured to establish accurate spatial relationships across the landscape. Documentation and verification of such benchmarks remain valuable for professionals requiring reliable geodetic references for property surveys, infrastructure projects, and mapping initiatives. Periodic inspection and confirmation of these stations help maintain the integrity of the established control network.
