This is a triangulation station within the NGS network, the foundational geodetic infrastructure of the United States. Trig points serve as control stations for horizontal positioning and are monumented to provide stable, recoverable reference positions for surveying and mapping operations. Located near Forest Hills, Tennessee, at 36.05611°, -86.85583°, this station contributes to the precise coordinate framework essential for property surveys, engineering projects, and cartographic work across the region. The absence of recorded elevation data indicates the need for verification and documentation by qualified surveyors. Recovery and confirmation of such benchmarks remains valuable for maintaining geodetic network integrity. Professional surveyors depend on accurately positioned control points to tie local surveys to the national datum. Verifying the physical condition and position of existing trig stations helps preserve this critical surveying infrastructure and ensures reliable spatial references for future projects.

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.
