THORNTON 2 AZ MK — NGS KK1737

This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network, which establishes the fundamental control framework for surveying and mapping activities throughout the United States. Located near Thornton, Colorado, this trig point serves as a fixed reference for horizontal positioning and angular measurements in regional geodetic work. Triangulation stations of this classification support cadastral surveys, infrastructure development, and geographic data acquisition across the state. The precise coordinates provided establish this point's position within the national coordinate system, enabling surveyors and engineers to reference their local measurements to the broader geodetic datum. Documentation and periodic verification of such control points remains valuable for maintaining survey accuracy, identifying potential ground movement or subsidence, and supporting modern positioning technologies. This benchmark contributes to Colorado's surveying infrastructure and facilitates coordination among multiple surveying projects in the region.
