This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network of control points that establish the fundamental horizontal and vertical framework for surveying and mapping across the United States. Located near El Paso, Texas, at coordinates 31.89932°N, 106.40679°W, this trig point serves as a reference station for precise geodetic positioning in the southwestern region. Triangulation stations of this type have traditionally provided fixed, monumented positions of known accuracy to support local and regional surveying projects, including cadastral surveys, engineering works, and geographic mapping. The NGS maintains registers of such benchmarks to preserve their locations and facilitate their use by surveying professionals and government agencies. Verification and documentation of these reference points remain essential for maintaining survey accuracy and continuity. Their preservation ensures that future surveying activities can reliably reference established geodetic control across the landscape.
