This NGS triangulation station is located near Collingswood, New Jersey, at coordinates 39.90795°, -75.08658°. As a trig point within the National Geodetic Survey network, it served as a fundamental control station for horizontal positioning and triangulation surveys across the region. Such stations provided the geometric framework essential for mapping, boundary establishment, and engineering projects throughout the United States. Trig stations of this type typically consisted of monumentation and sighting marks that allowed surveyors to establish precise positional control. The NGS network represents one of the nation's primary geodetic infrastructure systems, connecting thousands of reference points across diverse terrain. Verification and documentation of such benchmarks remain valuable for surveying professionals conducting boundary surveys, infrastructure projects, and spatial reference work. Recovery and confirmation of historical control points support continuity in the national spatial reference system.
