H 95 — NGS JC0156 — Venice, US

This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's classical trig network, which established the fundamental geodetic framework for the United States. Triangulation stations of this type served as primary control points for horizontal positioning and were integrated into the National Spatial Reference System (NSRS). Located near Venice, Illinois, this benchmark contributes to regional survey control in the lower Mississippi River valley area. The coordinates 38.67000° N, 90.17361° W place it within a region historically important to large-scale mapping and land surveying activities. Verification and documentation of such reference points remain valuable for surveying professionals conducting boundary surveys, engineering projects, and geodetic research. Though elevation was not recorded for this station, its horizontal coordinates maintain utility for positioning work. Professional surveyors may reference this point when establishing local control networks or validating survey data in the vicinity.
