This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, which establishes the fundamental geodetic framework for the United States. Trig stations serve as primary control points for surveying and mapping operations, providing accurate horizontal positions for subsequent surveys and engineering projects. Located in the vicinity of Grafton, West Virginia, at coordinates 39.33861° N, 80.02417° W, this point contributes to the regional control network for this area of Appalachia. As a trig station, it was established to support precise measurements across landscapes where direct measurement proved impractical. Documentation and verification of such benchmarks remain essential for surveyors, engineers, and GIS professionals relying on accurate positional reference data. The continued accessibility and integrity of NGS control points supports infrastructure development, legal boundary establishment, and scientific research. Surveyors conducting work in this region should verify the current condition and usability of this station through official NGS records.

Geodetic context in United States

The national geodetic reference in United States is maintained by National Geodetic Survey (NGS). The active datum is NAD83(2011) / NATRF2022 (active). Coordinates shown on this page are expressed in WGS84 (ETRF/ITRF-compatible) which is directly usable in most modern GNSS receivers. For cadastral work in United States you may need to convert to the local datum using the Coordinate Hub.
