I would direct him also to Clifford Mugnier at LSU's Center for
GeoInformatics who writes a column for the PERS journal called "Grids and
Datums".

Folks,   one of our geography faculty is involved in a cartographic
project regarding historic Hawaii maps.  Specifically, an issue involving
the nature of the survey system used.  Yes, I have directed him to U. of
Hawaii and he has talked to Ross and Riley.  I have just directed him to
Gary Fitzpatrick as well.



In your collections, do you have any Hawaii maps dating roughly 1880-1900?
Are they on a web site?  Do you have any experts on your campus re historic
Hawaii??

Finding a map which contains an explanation of the particular system
would be very helpful.   He is checking various web sites  [Rumsey,
etc.] now.



Thank you for any help or direction!
