The horizontal coordinates were established by GPS observations and adjusted by the National Geodetic Survey in April 2001.

The orthometric height was determined by GPS observations and a high-resolution geoid model using precise GPS observation and processing techniques.

The X, Y, and Z were computed from the position and the ellipsoidal ht.

The Laplace correction was computed from DEFLEC99 derived deflections.

The ellipsoidal height was determined by GPS observations and is referenced to NAD 83.

The geoid height was determined by GEOID03.
