This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, which serves as the foundational geodetic infrastructure for the United States. Located near El Paso, Texas, at coordinates 31.78357°N, 106.46053°W, this trig point was established to provide precise horizontal control for surveying and mapping activities across the region.
Triangulation stations of this type are typically monumented with durable markers and were historically observed through optical theodolite methods to create interconnected networks of known positions. Such points enable surveyors to establish local coordinate systems, verify property boundaries, and support engineering projects with verified horizontal datums.
The documentation and verification of existing benchmarks remain essential for maintaining geodetic infrastructure continuity. Reference points like this contribute to the national spatial reference system and support both public works and private surveying operations. Professionals conducting fieldwork in this area should verify the current condition and accessibility of this station.
