# GREAT NECK SATTERWITE DOME — NGS KU3838 GREAT NECK SATTERWITE DOME (NGS KU3838) is a triangulation station located in the Village of Kings Point, Nassau County, New York, at 40.8061°N, 73.7579°W. This NGS-maintained control point serves as a primary reference monument for high-precision geodetic work in the Long Island Sound region. The station supports static GNSS occupations for establishing or verifying local horizontal and vertical datums, RTK/DGPS positioning networks requiring centimeter-level accuracy, leveling operations tied to the National Spatial Reference System, and regional network densification projects. Professional surveyors utilize this benchmark for boundary retracement, large-scale engineering surveys, and validation of local control networks. Researchers should verify current monument condition and accessibility through the NGS database prior to fieldwork.
