This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, which establishes the foundation for the Nation's spatial reference system. Trigonometric stations serve as control points for surveying and mapping activities across the United States, providing precise horizontal positions from which surveyors and engineers reference their work. Located in the Alameda, California region, this benchmark contributes to the densification of geodetic control in the San Francisco Bay Area. The coordinates 37.77983°, -122.29816° define its horizontal position within the national datum framework. Documentation and verification of such reference points remain essential for professional surveying practice. Confirming the physical existence, condition, and accessibility of benchmarks ensures their continued utility for cadastral surveys, engineering projects, and other applications requiring reliable geodetic control. Regular field inspection and maintenance of these monuments supports the integrity of the geodetic network.
