David,
Is it the red T in the circle on the left side just on the edge of the screen shot?

If you're looking at that plus symbol that's a data control point that doesn't have the usgs monument in place.

Howdy folks.



I have a client who is trying to figure out what the symbol “T” means on a USGS topographic map (see below).  The map is from 1940 and I don’t see any interpretation of it on the USGS key of symbols (https://pubs.usgs.gov/gip/TopographicMapSymbols/topomapsymbols.pdf<https://nam01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpubs.usgs.gov%2Fgip%2FTopographicMapSymbols%2Ftopomapsymbols.pdf&data=02%7C01%7Chdr10%40PSU.EDU%7C27b2d572d0154bb3c84008d79e2978a5%7C7cf48d453ddb4389a9c1c115526eb52e%7C0%7C1%7C637151773273763626&sdata=aSFFLAGSV6%2FTdy%2FaHckFoKSDLVJ%2FjObWvzBDmaY2BNs%3D&reserved=0>).  My suspicion is a transmission or telephone line, but that’s only a guess.  Thanks for your help.
