This trigonometric station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network of control points that establishes the geometric and geodetic framework for the United States. Located near Oakland, California at coordinates 37.83225° North, 122.25447° West, this trig point serves as a reference station for horizontal positioning and triangulation work in the San Francisco Bay Area region. Trigonometric stations of this type provide precise horizontal control for mapping, surveying, and engineering projects. The NGS network represents decades of systematic geodetic measurement and remains fundamental to surveying practice, GPS validation, and geographic information systems throughout North America. Documentation and verification of such control points remains important for maintaining the integrity of the national geodetic datum and supporting professional survey work that depends on reliable reference coordinates.

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.
