NILE — NGS FO1164 — Albuquerque, US

This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, which establishes and maintains the fundamental geodetic control for the United States. Located near Albuquerque, New Mexico at coordinates 35.19869° N, 106.55513° W, this trig point serves as a reference station for surveying and mapping operations throughout the region. Triangulation stations of this type were established to create a framework of precisely positioned points across the country. They support land surveys, infrastructure development, and cartographic work. The NGS network remains integral to national mapping, engineering projects, and scientific research requiring accurate spatial reference data. Verification and documentation of such benchmarks ensure the continued reliability of geodetic control networks. Professional surveyors and engineers depend on these stations for establishing local coordinate systems and validating survey measurements. Maintaining records of these reference points preserves critical infrastructure data for future generations.
