This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network of control points that establish the primary framework for surveying and mapping across the United States. Trig stations serve as precisely positioned reference markers for horizontal control, enabling surveyors and engineers to conduct accurate measurements and coordinate determinations across large areas. Located near Collinsville, Illinois, this benchmark contributes to regional geodetic infrastructure in the lower Mississippi River valley. The coordinates provided (38.66202°, -90.01788°) position this point within the established NGS control network. Verification and documentation of such reference points remains essential for maintaining the integrity of the National Spatial Reference System, supporting construction projects, land surveying, and GIS applications that depend on reliable positional data. Current condition and accessibility information should be confirmed through direct field inspection before use in critical surveying operations.
