This QLD Permanent Survey Marker benchmark was installed in 2009 to commemorate 150 years of surveying as part of Queensland’s 150 year birthday celebrations.

The Survey and Spatial Sciences Institute (SSSI) has installed 60 permanent benchmarks across Queensland allowing the public to check the accuracy of GPS units and growing awareness of the science of surveying.
