This NGS triangulation station is located near Shawnee, Kansas, at coordinates 39.01056° N, 94.79250° W. As a trig point within the National Geodetic Survey network, this monument serves as a fundamental control point for establishing accurate horizontal positions across the region. Triangulation stations form the backbone of the National Spatial Reference System, providing the geometric framework upon which cadastral surveys, engineering projects, and mapping initiatives depend. The trig network enables surveyors and mapmakers to reference local measurements to a consistent national datum. Verification and documentation of such control points remain essential for maintaining the integrity of geodetic networks, particularly as modernization efforts introduce new survey technologies. This benchmark's location in the Kansas City metropolitan area underscores the comprehensive geographic distribution of NGS control infrastructure throughout the continental United States.
