HGCSD 19 — NGS AW5506 — Houston, US

This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's fundamental control network, which establishes the horizontal and vertical reference framework for surveying and mapping throughout the United States. Located near Houston, Texas, at coordinates 29.86665° N, 95.48789° W, this trig point serves as a fixed reference for geodetic surveys and engineering projects across the region. The ellipsoidal elevation of -2.4 meters reflects the point's position relative to the WGS 84 reference ellipsoid. Triangulation stations of this type provide monumented control points essential for cadastral surveys, infrastructure development, and scientific positioning work. Verification and documentation of such benchmarks remain critical for maintaining geodetic network integrity and ensuring accuracy in contemporary surveying applications that depend on established reference coordinates.
