This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, which maintains the geometric foundation for surveying and mapping activities across the United States. Trigonometric stations serve as precise reference points for establishing horizontal control networks and supporting large-scale surveying operations. Located at approximately 21.57°N, 158.14°W in US territory, this benchmark contributes to geodetic control in the Pacific region. The coordinates indicate positioning in or near the Hawaiian Islands area. As a trig point, this station would have historically supported triangulation campaigns for mapping and coordinate establishment. Documentation and verification of such monuments remain valuable for surveyors conducting precise work, as these points provide continuity with historical surveys and enable quality assurance in modern positioning operations. The absence of recorded elevation data underscores the importance of field reconnaissance and verification by surveying professionals, ensuring comprehensive characterization of control points in the national geodetic network.

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.
