This trigonometric station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network, which establishes the horizontal datum framework for the United States. Located near Kennebunkport, Maine, at coordinates 43.39736° N, 70.47846° W, this trig point served as a control station for triangulation surveys and subsequent mapping efforts in coastal southern Maine. Trig stations of this type were established to provide accurate reference points for surveying, mapping, and engineering projects. Their positions were determined through precise angular measurements between intervisible stations, creating a network of known coordinates. Documentation and verification of such points remains important for surveyors and engineers who require reliable geodetic control. While elevation data for this particular station is not recorded in available registry information, its horizontal coordinates contribute to the established geodetic framework in the region.
