This triangulation (trig) station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network of control points that establish the geometric foundation for surveying and mapping across the United States. Trig stations serve as precisely positioned reference points used to support terrestrial surveys, cadastral mapping, and engineering projects. Located in Bernalillo County, New Mexico, this benchmark contributes to regional geodetic control in the Rio Grande Valley area. The coordinates have been established through classical geodetic methods. Verification and documentation of such control points remain essential for surveyors and engineers conducting boundary surveys, construction projects, and land development activities. Maintaining accurate records of these reference monuments ensures the integrity of surveying networks and supports consistent spatial data across jurisdictions. Professional surveyors rely on NGS benchmarks to tie their local surveys into the national datum and coordinate system.
