This template can be used to create an external link to a [[United States National Geodetic Survey]] (NGS} datasheet. It is intended for inline external links. For citations and other external links see {{tl|Cite ngs}}.
===Usage===
A search engine can be found [https://www.ngs.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/ds_radius.prl here]. It requires the [[Geographic coordinate system|coordinates]] of the [[Benchmark (surveying)|benchmark]].
The syntax is:
:<tt><nowiki>{{NGS|<id>|<title>}}</nowiki></tt>
where:
*<tt><id></tt> is the value following <tt>?PidBox=</tt> in the URL
*<tt><title></tt> is an optional link title.
===Example===
*<tt><nowiki>{{NGS|GT1811}}</nowiki></tt> → {{NGS|GT1811}}
*<tt><nowiki>{{NGS|GT1811|Whitney}}</nowiki></tt> → {{NGS|GT1811|Whitney}}
