What serves as the baseline for measuring elevations of earths landforms?

What is sea level in Hawaii?
The level of its surface relative to the land. For mapping and other technical purposes the Mean Sea Level at a suitable reference location is used, to allow for the tides. I don't know the American equivalent, but for the UK the reference level is Mean Sea Level measured at Newlyn, Cornwall, as it is a convenient location little affected bycoastal features or the English Channel, Bristol Channel (the Severn Estuary), etc.
