WAIAKEA CREEK CHAN DAYBEACON 1 — NGS TU2266 — Hilo, US

This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network, which establishes and maintains the foundation for all surveying and mapping activities across the United States. Situated near Hilo on the Island of Hawaii at coordinates 19.72420°, -155.07119°, this trig point serves as a reference monument for horizontal control. Triangulation stations of this type were historically established to create a framework of known positions across the landscape, enabling surveyors and cartographers to locate other features with precision. The station's documented geographic location allows it to serve as a verification point for local surveys and engineering projects. Maintaining an accurate registry of such benchmarks, including their coordinates and condition, remains essential for ensuring consistency in geodetic work and supporting the accuracy of spatial data used in infrastructure development, land management, and scientific research throughout Hawaii and beyond.
