# Survey and Reference Skeleton

> Sectional organization and accepted visual reference lines.

## What you can explore

The reference skeleton makes station rhythm, centerline, deck references, and sectional organization visible. It gives technical and non-technical viewers a shared way to understand how the ship is organized from bow to stern.

## What Forge has demonstrated

The displayed references belong to the accepted canonical coordinate skeleton. The view brings together 327 reference edges and 5,559 sampled points as an inspectable framework for positioning and comparison.

## What a partner could unlock

Additional sectional drawings, restoration records, and survey control could connect more reference lines to physical members, construction details, and verified transitions between structural bays.
