This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network of control points that establish the fundamental geometric framework for surveying and mapping across the United States. Trig stations of this type serve as stable reference monuments for horizontal positioning and are typically established on elevated terrain to facilitate sightlines for classical triangulation methods. Located in Harrison County, West Virginia, this point contributes to regional geodetic control in the Appalachian area. The station's coordinates, referenced to standard NAD83 datum, provide precise horizontal positioning data for surveyors, mapmakers, and infrastructure projects operating in the region. Documentation and verification of benchmark monuments like this remain valuable for confirming the integrity of the national spatial reference system, particularly for surveyors conducting boundary work or establishing local control networks. NGS benchmarks continue to serve the surveying profession despite advances in GNSS technology.
