CEN 9 — NGS CE0607 — El Paso, US

This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's horizontal control network, which establishes the foundational framework for accurate positioning and surveying across the United States. Located near El Paso, Texas at coordinates 31.79156° N, 106.44033° W, this trig point serves as a reference for local and regional surveys. Triangulation stations of this type historically provided precise horizontal control before the advent of modern satellite-based systems, and they retain value for verification, densification, and quality assurance in surveying operations. The documented position enables surveyors to establish local survey networks with known accuracy relative to the national datum. Periodic verification and maintenance of such benchmarks ensures their continued reliability and supports the integrity of the broader geodetic infrastructure upon which engineering, mapping, and cadastral surveys depend.
