The network design is built from control points that you can reoccupy from an existing framework and from new points you establish. Recovered points are old, previously established control points that you locate again in the field to tie the new work to the established reference frame. New control points are created where there are gaps or to extend coverage, giving the network the necessary geometry and redundancy for accurate measurements. This combination provides a solid guide for actual ground surveying because it anchors field work to known references while expanding the control network where needed. Using only fixed/movable, primary/secondary, or existing/verified would not capture the intended process, whereas recovered/new explicitly conveys restoring part of the old network and adding new references.
