This triangulation (trig) station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network, which forms the foundation of the United States' horizontal control system. Trig stations serve as precisely positioned reference points used to establish and verify survey networks across the country. Located at coordinates 21.46264° N, 158.19652° W in Hawaii, this benchmark contributes to the NGS geodetic framework used for mapping, engineering projects, and scientific applications. The elevation has not been recorded in available documentation. Verification and proper documentation of such control points remain essential for maintaining the integrity of survey-grade positioning data. Professional surveyors rely on these established reference marks to conduct accurate boundary surveys, construction layout, and other precision work. Locating and preserving these monuments helps sustain the continuity of Hawaii's geodetic infrastructure.

Geodetic context in United States

The national geodetic reference in United States is maintained by National Geodetic Survey (NGS). The active datum is NAD83(2011) / NATRF2022 (active). Coordinates shown on this page are expressed in WGS84 (ETRF/ITRF-compatible) which is directly usable in most modern GNSS receivers. For cadastral work in United States you may need to convert to the local datum using the Coordinate Hub.

Is this point verified and usable for professional surveying?

This record has been community-verified 0 times. Data quality depends on the source: NGS and official national agency points are typically centimetre-accurate, OpenStreetMap survey points are metre-accurate, and GeoNames topographic landmarks (peaks, hills) are reference-grade only. Always cross-reference with the original agency datasheet before using this point for cadastral, legal, or safety-critical work.

Original source: this record was imported from ngs_public. Always refer to the original datasheet for the most up-to-date and authoritative data.
