Aloha Naomi,
We have the DOS, Series X041, 6-sheet, image-based, set of maps of
Tuvalu. They are dated from the 1970s-80s. Scales vary. No contour
lines, as far as I can tell. What are supposed to be spot heights at
triangulation points, I can not confirm (there are numbers, but I think
they are survey marker identification and not elevation numbers). Maybe
someone can double-check that.
We also have nautical chart #83094 (D 5.356:83094/995) in file, but spot
elevations are rather sparse.
We don't have the JOGs, but I sorta doubt that they will be of much
help. These islands/atolls/islets are fairly small.
Hope this is helpful. Please contact us if you or your students have
any questions.
Aloha,
Ross
