KEAAU 1875 — NGS TU1717

This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, which maintains the foundational horizontal geodetic control for the United States. As a trig point, it served historical surveying campaigns to establish accurate positions across broad areas through intervisible networks of elevated stations. The coordinates place this benchmark in Hawaii, where such points were essential for mapping the archipelago and supporting subsequent survey work. Trig stations remain valuable reference monuments for surveyors and engineers conducting local surveys, boundary work, and engineering projects. Verification and documentation of existing benchmarks helps preserve institutional knowledge of control networks and enables professionals to assess point condition, accessibility, and suitability for contemporary applications. This point's elevation data should be sought through NGS records to complete its characterization as a reference monument.
