PTS 63 — NGS AW4611 — Harris County, US

This trigonometric station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network, which establishes and maintains the fundamental geodetic control for the United States. Trig stations serve as primary reference points for surveying, mapping, and engineering projects by providing accurately determined horizontal positions. Located in Harris County, Texas, at coordinates 29.92364°N, 95.63187°W, this benchmark contributes to regional surveying infrastructure in a heavily developed area. Trig stations of this classification typically mark elevated or strategically visible locations to facilitate line-of-sight observations between control points. Verification and documentation of such monuments remains essential for surveyors, engineers, and GIS professionals who rely on established geodetic control for accurate positioning. Maintaining records of existing benchmarks prevents duplication of effort and ensures consistency in surveying work across jurisdictional boundaries. The point's continued accessibility and monumentation status support ongoing spatial data applications.
