# W ANDERSON 2 RM 3 — NGS KV0496 NGS triangulation station W ANDERSON 2 RM 3 (KV0496) is a third-order control point located in Hackensack, New Jersey at 40.8921°N, 74.0367°W, with an ellipsoidal elevation of 3.9 meters. Established as part of the national geodetic network, this trig station provides fundamental horizontal and vertical control for regional survey operations. The point supports RTK base station operations, static GNSS survey sessions requiring known datum control, differential leveling networks, and densification of local coordinate frameworks. Surveyors conducting boundary, engineering, or mapping work in the northern New Jersey area can utilize this benchmark for accuracy verification, network adjustment, and establishing tied control for projects requiring sub-decimeter or better positioning accuracy. Standard monumentation and recovery procedures apply; refer to the NGS Datasheet for current condition reports and photographic documentation.
