 Subject: MAPS-L: 1:50k coverage of the Islands of Sumatra?

Dear Jim
The National Library of Australia has extensive topographic coverage of
Indonesia, both current and retrospective.  We hold 1:50 000 coverage in
the current (Indonesian) series for much of Indonesia and even to 1:25
000 for some parts.  However a check of that part of the archipelago
shows no coverage at that scale of the islands, suggesting either it has
yet to be done of or is not available.
We do hold the following, retrospective topo series for the islands:
1:100 000 (T618) series - US army series
1:50 000 Nias (HIND 614/GSGS 4601) series - WWII vintage - British or US
1:50 000 Simeulue (HIND 602) - WWII vintage - British/US
We can provide full size, B&W copies.
Please let me know if this is of use to your reader.
Yours sincerely

Greetings, Map Folk!

I've got a researcher who is working on the Sumatra Subduction zone, the
site of two recent earthquakes you've probably heard of.  He needs some
topo maps that I don't have, and I wonder if anybody else out there does
have them?  They're 1:50,000 coverage of two different islands, Nias and
Simeuleu.  I've got indexes that indicate that the maps have been
published (I've even seen one!), but I don't have any of the others.

Does anybody?  I've already harrassed the map librarians in the UC
system and at Stanford, so I'm trying to :

Kabupaten Nias, all sheets on 0517, 0616, and 0617
Kabupaten Simeulue, all sheets on 0418 and 0518

I've located 1:250,000, which isn't as detailed as he'd like, but I'm
wondering if there's anybody out there in MapLand who has these?

Thank you so much!
