This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, the primary geodetic control infrastructure for the United States. Trig stations serve as fundamental reference points for surveying, mapping, and engineering projects by providing precisely determined horizontal positions. Located near Baltimore, Maryland, this benchmark contributes to regional control density and supports both historical and contemporary survey operations across the mid-Atlantic. The station's coordinates (39.27157°, -76.62558°) establish its role within the broader network of horizontal control monuments. Documentation and verification of such stations remain important for surveyors and engineers who rely on established control points for accurate work. Maintaining records of these geodetic reference marks ensures continuity of spatial reference systems and facilitates quality control in surveying activities across jurisdictions and time periods.

Geodetic context in United States

The national geodetic reference in United States is maintained by National Geodetic Survey (NGS). The active datum is NAD83(2011) / NATRF2022 (active). Coordinates shown on this page are expressed in WGS84 (ETRF/ITRF-compatible) which is directly usable in most modern GNSS receivers. For cadastral work in United States you may need to convert to the local datum using the Coordinate Hub.
