Kokee Park Geophysical Observatory

Kokee Park Geophysical Observatory is a fixed geodetic observing site near Waimea on Kauai. Its IVS configuration documents colocated 20-metre and 12-metre VLBI systems, GNSS and DORIS references, and identifies NASA as the responsible agency. This record groups the site's instruments into one facility. The mapped coordinates are the surveyed station position published in the IVS configuration, whose local-tie information includes the colocated geodetic techniques.
