This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, which establishes the fundamental control framework for surveying and mapping throughout the United States. Located in El Paso County, Texas, at coordinates 31.83388° N, 106.38594° W, this trig point serves as a monumented reference station for horizontal geodetic control.
Triangulation stations of this type were historically established to provide accurate positional references for regional and local surveys. The NGS maintains these monuments as part of the National Spatial Reference System, enabling surveyors, engineers, and cartographers to conduct precise work with consistent accuracy standards.
Verification and documentation of such control points remain essential for quality assurance in surveying practice. Resurveying these monuments helps detect any physical displacement or subsidence and ensures their continued utility for modern positioning applications. Surveyors should consult current NGS data when planning work in this region to confirm the point's accessibility and condition.
