This trigonometric station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's horizontal control network, which establishes the foundation for precise positioning across the United States. Located near Murray, Utah, at coordinates 40.67880° north latitude and 111.90837° west longitude, this benchmark serves as a fixed reference point for surveying, mapping, and engineering projects throughout the region. Trig stations of this class were historically observed and monumented to provide accurate horizontal control where high precision was required. The ellipsoidal elevation of 1286.8 meters reflects the point's height above the reference ellipsoid used in geodetic computations. Such control points remain valuable for verifying survey networks, establishing local coordinate systems, and ensuring consistency in spatial data. Documentation and periodic verification of these monuments support the accuracy and reliability of cadastral, engineering, and scientific applications dependent on precise geodetic positioning.
