BEE — NGS KK1629 — Elbert County, US

This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, the foundational geodetic infrastructure supporting surveying and mapping across the United States. Trigonometric stations of this type serve as control points for horizontal positioning, established through systematic triangulation methods to provide accurate reference coordinates for subsequent surveys and projects. Located in Elbert County, Colorado, at 39.31944°N, 104.53472°W, this benchmark occupies a position within the Front Range region of the Rocky Mountains. Such elevated locations were characteristically selected for triangulation networks to optimize intervisibility across the landscape and provide stable geometry for network computations. Documentation and periodic verification of established benchmarks remain essential for maintaining the integrity of the national geodetic framework. Surveyors and GIS professionals rely on these control points to ensure consistency and accuracy across cadastral surveys, engineering projects, and spatial data initiatives throughout the state and region.
