This is a triangulation station within the National Geodetic Survey network, a foundational component of the United States' horizontal control infrastructure. Located near Dover, New Hampshire, at coordinates 43.14008° N, 70.86596° W, this trig point served as a survey-grade reference for establishing accurate positions across its region. Triangulation stations of this class were historically occupied with theodolites and other optical instruments to create a framework for mapping and subsequent engineering projects. Modern surveyors value the recovery and verification of such established monuments for boundary work, construction layout, and datum transformation studies. Documenting the continued existence and condition of NGS control points contributes to the maintenance and reliability of the nation's geodetic infrastructure. Professional verification ensures these reference points remain useful for contemporary surveying applications.
