This is a triangulation (trig) station within the NGS national geodetic network, located in Maryland near Baltimore at coordinates 39.34194°N, 76.68472°W. Trig stations serve as fundamental control points for surveying and mapping operations across the United States, providing precise horizontal positioning data integrated into the National Spatial Reference System. These monuments enable surveyors and engineers to establish accurate local control networks for boundary surveys, construction projects, and geographic information systems work. The NGS maintains records of such stations to support professional surveying practice and ensure consistency in coordinate systems across jurisdictions. Verification and documentation of existing trig stations is valuable for surveying professionals requiring reliable reference points and contributes to the long-term integrity of the nation's geodetic infrastructure. Current elevation data for this particular station has not been recorded in available documentation.
