The numbering of control points is 1 to 3000 for those established by which agencies, and 3001 onward for those established by which agencies and other entities?

Control point numbering is organized by who established the point. In this system, numbers 1 through 3000 are assigned to control points established by NAMRIA and the Land Management Bureau/ Land Management Services (LMB/LMS). Numbers 3001 and above are for points established by other agencies and entities. This separation helps prevent numbering conflicts and immediately shows the origin of a point, which is important for tracing provenance and maintaining a consistent geodetic network. So the agencies for the 1–3000 range are NAMRIA and LMB/LMS; the rest come from other agencies and entities starting at 3001.
