This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network of control points that establish the horizontal geodetic framework across the United States. Located in southeastern Alaska's Unorganized Borough, this trigonometric station serves as a reference point for surveying, mapping, and positioning work in the region. Triangulation stations of this type were established to support large-scale surveys and provide accurate control for subsequent detailed mapping activities. The published coordinates represent the station's position within the national coordinate system. Verification and documentation of such control points remain valuable for surveying professionals conducting boundary surveys, engineering projects, and geographic information system development. Maintaining accurate records of these reference points supports the continuing integrity of Alaska's surveying infrastructure and enables proper connection of local surveys to the broader geodetic network.
