This is a triangulation station in the National Geodetic Survey network, located near Albuquerque, New Mexico at coordinates 35.08656° N, 106.51505° W. Trig stations serve as fundamental control points for the horizontal geodetic framework of the United States, establishing precise positions through classical triangulation methods. Such points are essential for cadastral surveys, engineering projects, and map production throughout their regions. This particular station contributes to the density of accurate reference positions in central New Mexico. As part of NGS's national network, it provides surveyors and geospatial professionals with a reliable anchor for local and regional surveys. Verification and documentation of existing trig stations ensures the integrity of geodetic databases and supports continued access to this critical infrastructure for the surveying community.
