This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's comprehensive network maintaining the geometric framework for the United States. Located near Waipahu on the Island of Oahu, Hawaii, the point occupies a strategic position within the Hawaiian archipelago's geodetic infrastructure. Triangulation stations serve as fixed reference points for establishing accurate horizontal and vertical control across regions, enabling reliable surveying, mapping, and construction projects. The ellipsoidal elevation of 58.3 meters provides vertical reference data tied to contemporary datums. Documentation and periodic verification of such benchmarks remain essential to the integrity of geodetic networks, supporting both legacy surveys and modern positioning systems. This point contributes to the continuity of spatial reference frameworks critical for civil engineering, land management, and scientific applications throughout Hawaii and adjacent oceanic zones.
