This triangulation station is part of the NGS geodetic network, which establishes the fundamental horizontal control framework for the United States. Trig stations of this type serve as monumented reference points used in surveying, mapping, and engineering projects across regional areas. Located near Nashville, Tennessee, at coordinates 36.12069° N, 86.75285° W, this point contributes to the network's spatial accuracy and continuity. Triangulation stations historically provided precise positional control before the advent of satellite-based systems, and many remain valuable as independent verification points and reference standards. Geodetic benchmarks require periodic inspection and documentation to confirm their condition and continued usability. Accurate location records and verification of these monuments ensure reliable reference data for surveyors, cartographers, and infrastructure development projects. Maintaining comprehensive registries of such control points supports professional surveying standards and historical geodetic documentation.
