This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's horizontal control network, which establishes and maintains the fundamental geodetic framework for the United States. Trig points serve as primary reference monuments for surveying, mapping, and engineering projects throughout their region. Located near Baltimore, Maryland at coordinates 39.26870°, -76.59247°, this station provides essential ground control for the Mid-Atlantic region. Triangulation stations like this one were historically observed and computed to create interconnected networks of known positions, enabling surveyors and engineers to reference local measurements to a national coordinate system. Documentation and periodic verification of such benchmarks remain critical for maintaining survey integrity and supporting infrastructure development. Even when elevation data is absent from historical records, the horizontal position retains significant value for regional survey work and provides a foundation for modern positioning applications.
