This trigonometric station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's horizontal control network, which establishes the fundamental reference framework for surveying and mapping activities across the United States. Located in the San Diego, California area, this trig point serves as a control station for geodetic observations and surveying work in its region. Such monuments provide precise coordinate reference points essential for land surveys, engineering projects, and geographic information systems. The NGS network comprises thousands of systematically distributed stations that enable surveyors to tie local measurements to the national geodetic datum. Verification and documentation of benchmark locations and their coordinates remain valuable for ensuring survey accuracy and maintaining the integrity of the geodetic infrastructure upon which property boundaries, construction projects, and spatial data management depend.

Is this point verified and usable for professional surveying?

This record has been community-verified 0 times. Data quality depends on the source: NGS and official national agency points are typically centimetre-accurate, OpenStreetMap survey points are metre-accurate, and GeoNames topographic landmarks (peaks, hills) are reference-grade only. Always cross-reference with the original agency datasheet before using this point for cadastral, legal, or safety-critical work.

Original source: this record was imported from ngs_public. Always refer to the original datasheet for the most up-to-date and authoritative data.
