National Geodesy—Status and Planning
From its earliest beginning the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey (USCGS) has been engaged in establishing a federal geodetic framework of horizontal and vertical control, as a prerequisite to national mapping and as a base for land surveys and engineering projects. This paper describes the development of the geodetic network in the United States, the present status of control surveys, the planning of future geodetic surveys, and the part that engineers can play in helping to preserve the many thousands of monumented stations and bench marks that have been established.
