This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, which establishes and maintains the geodetic control infrastructure for the United States. Located near Atlanta, Georgia at coordinates 33.80346°, -84.42295°, this trig point serves as a horizontal control reference for surveying and mapping activities throughout the region. Triangulation stations function as monumented points whose positions have been precisely determined through geodetic measurements. These marks support cadastral surveys, engineering projects, geospatial mapping, and scientific research requiring accurate horizontal datum references. The NGS network consists of thousands of such stations distributed across the country, forming a hierarchical framework that enables surveyors and engineers to tie local work to national geodetic datums. Verification and documentation of these benchmarks is essential for maintaining the integrity of surveying networks and ensuring consistency in spatial positioning across projects and jurisdictions.
