DENVER STATE CAPITOL DOME — NGS KK1709

This triangulation (trig) station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network of control points that establish the foundational geodetic framework for the United States. Situated in the Denver, Colorado region at coordinates 39.73923°N, 104.98487°W, this point serves as a reference station for surveying and mapping activities across its service area. Trig stations of this class were historically established to provide horizontal control through intervisible networks, enabling surveyors to conduct precise measurements and spatial referencing. The point's location in the Front Range area makes it potentially valuable for regional surveying projects, infrastructure development, and geospatial applications. Documentation and verification of such benchmark locations remain important for maintaining survey accuracy and continuity, particularly as older control networks support modern GPS and geodetic positioning standards. Surveyors undertaking work in this vicinity should verify current station status and accessibility through the NGS database.
