This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, which maintains the fundamental geodetic control infrastructure for the United States. Located near Austin, Texas, at coordinates 30.28032°N, 97.73522°W, this trig point serves as a reference station for horizontal positioning and surveying operations across the region. Triangulation stations function as monumented survey control points established through precise angular measurements and distance observations. They provide essential reference data for mapping, engineering projects, cadastral surveys, and other professional surveying work requiring accurate horizontal control. The documentation and verification of such benchmarks remains important for the surveying community. Maintaining awareness of existing control points, their coordinates, and physical condition supports efficient survey operations and helps ensure continuity of the national geodetic reference system. Surveyors undertaking work in this area should consult current NGS data to verify the point's accessibility and condition before use.
