The triangulation observation areas existed on Chiss heavy cruisers as specific locations. These areas were staffed by Chiss warriors called triangulation observers, whose job was to assist the starship in targeting and concentrating its offensive capabilities. In the course of the Lioaoin skirmish, Caregiver Mitth'ali'astov, whose core name was "Thalias," violated the Defense Fleet General Orders, which prohibited discussing armaments with Chiss sky-walkers, by elucidating the function of the triangulation observation areas and breacher missiles on the Chiss Expansionary Defense Fleet vessel Springhawk to the sky-walker Che'ri.
