CLEVELAND TERMINAL TOWER — NGS MB2866

This trigonometric station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network of reference points that form the foundation of the United States' horizontal control system. Located near Cleveland, Ohio, at coordinates 41.49828°N, 81.69335°W, this trig point serves as a spatial reference for surveying, mapping, and engineering projects throughout the region. Trigonometric stations of this type were established to provide monumented positions of known and precise geographic location. They enable surveyors and geodetic professionals to tie local surveys into the national datum, ensuring consistency and accuracy across project boundaries and jurisdictions. The preservation and documentation of such control points remains valuable for modern surveying activities, including boundary establishment, infrastructure development, and GIS applications. Verification of these stations' continued existence and monumentation status supports the integrity of Ohio's geodetic infrastructure.
