This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network of control points that form the foundation of the United States' geodetic infrastructure. Located near Conway, Arkansas, at coordinates 35.07675° North, 92.43438° West, this trig point serves as a reference for horizontal control in the region. Triangulation stations of this type were historically established to support surveying, mapping, and engineering projects across the country. The NGS maintains these control points as permanent marks to enable surveyors and engineers to tie their local surveys into the national coordinate system with high accuracy. Verification and documentation of such benchmarks remain valuable to the surveying profession, as they provide independent checks for modern positioning technologies and support projects requiring precise geographic references. This point contributes to the broader network upon which regional mapping and infrastructure development depend.

Is this point verified and usable for professional surveying?

This record has been community-verified 0 times. Data quality depends on the source: NGS and official national agency points are typically centimetre-accurate, OpenStreetMap survey points are metre-accurate, and GeoNames topographic landmarks (peaks, hills) are reference-grade only. Always cross-reference with the original agency datasheet before using this point for cadastral, legal, or safety-critical work.

Original source: this record was imported from ngs_public. Always refer to the original datasheet for the most up-to-date and authoritative data.
