The presentw ork was performed partially in collaboration with the geodeticd ivision of GSI. The authorsw ould like to thank the division head, A. Yoshimura. Mr. H. Kig-me, and the other crew of the geodetic division for their precision analysis with GAMIT and GLOBK. They would like to express their thanks to Mr. Y. Hatanakaf or valuable discussionsa boutt he differenceo f a vertical line. They would like to thank a registereds urveyor,M r. M. Yoshida of Zenkoku Kokudo Chousa Kyoukai (All Japan Land Survey Association), for fruitful discussions on the problems associatedw ith the geoid inclination.T hey could learna bout the difficulty to place or direct somethingw ith an accuracy of -1”. They are grateful to Mr. S. Fujii and Mr. H. Ohta of the Kamioka mining and smelting company for the traverse survey at the Kamioka mine. The presentw ork was supportedi n part by Grant-in-Aids for Scientific Research (No. 08454071a) nd for OverseasS cientific Researches( No. 07041 103a ndNo. 09041113)o f Ministry of Education,S ci-ence, Sports, and Culture (Monbusho).

N2 - A positioning of the neutrino detector SuperKamiokande (SK) was made for a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment planned at KEK. For positioning, Global Positioning System (GPS) was employed. It has been demonstrated that GPS is of practical use for measuring the positions of SK and KEK, being 250 km distance from each other, to a better resolution. The geodetic coordinates at the SK center were obtained to be Lat. 36°25′32.5862″ N., Long. 137°18′37.1241″ E., H. 371.839 m in the global ellipsoidal coordinate system, WGS-84. The obtained coordinates are based on the coordinates given at a triangulation point at the KEK site. The present work will be fed back for constructing the neutrino beam line.
