This triangulation point belongs to France's local geodetic network and represents a fundamental control station within the country's surveying infrastructure. Trigonometric stations of this class serve as primary reference points for cadastral mapping, engineering surveys, and spatial framework establishment at regional scales. Located at coordinates 49.69435°N, 5.86669°E in French territory, the benchmark's elevation data remain undocumented in available records. Such trig points facilitate precise horizontal positioning for downstream surveying operations and support the maintenance of France's geodetic datum. The point's location within the local network indicates its role in providing ground control for topographic and engineering work in its vicinity. Documentation and verification of existing benchmarks—particularly those with incomplete elevation records—remain valuable for contemporary surveyors and contribute to comprehensive geodetic infrastructure assessment. Recovery and reoccupation of such stations help maintain survey continuity and support modern positioning standards.

Geodetic context in France

The national geodetic reference in France is maintained by Institut Géographique National (IGN). The active datum is RGF93 / Lambert-93. 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 France you may need to convert to the local datum using the Coordinate Hub.

Is this point verified and usable for professional surveying?

This record has been community-verified 0 times. Data quality depends on the source: NGS and official national agency points are typically centimetre-accurate, OpenStreetMap survey points are metre-accurate, and GeoNames topographic landmarks (peaks, hills) are reference-grade only. Always cross-reference with the original agency datasheet before using this point for cadastral, legal, or safety-critical work.

Original source: this record was imported from osm_public. Always refer to the original datasheet for the most up-to-date and authoritative data.
