This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, which comprises the primary geodetic framework for the United States. Trig stations serve as control points for surveying and mapping operations, established to provide precise horizontal positioning data for regional surveys and infrastructure projects. Located near Smyrna, Georgia, at coordinates 33.87639° N, 84.49250° W, this benchmark contributes to the geodetic infrastructure of the Atlanta metropolitan area. Such stations historically supported cadastral surveys, engineering projects, and the development of topographic mapping throughout the state. Verification and documentation of existing control points remain valuable for surveyors and engineers requiring accurate reference positions. Even where elevation data has not been formally recorded, the horizontal coordinates provide essential geodetic information. Maintaining current records of these stations ensures continuity of survey networks and supports modern positioning applications that depend on established control infrastructure.

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.
