This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network, which establishes fundamental geodetic control across the United States. Located near Albuquerque, New Mexico at coordinates 35.09534°N, 106.63826°W, this trig point serves as a reference station for precise positional and elevation surveys in the region. Triangulation stations of this type historically provided essential framework for mapping and surveying operations. Such benchmarks remain valuable for verifying contemporary positioning data, establishing local survey networks, and documenting long-term crustal movements. The point's location within New Mexico's geodetic infrastructure contributes to broader national surveys and engineering projects requiring accurate horizontal control. Verification and maintenance of NGS reference points ensures data integrity for surveyors, engineers, and scientists relying on precise positional information. Documentation of such stations preserves institutional geodetic knowledge and supports continued use of established survey networks.
