================================================== MAPS-L MAPS-L MAPS-L =================================================== Date: Tue, 19 Apr 2005 From: Maura O'Connor <[log in to unmask]> 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 Maura O'Connor Map Curator National Library of Australia Canberra ACT 2600 Phone : 61 2 6262 1280 Fax: 61 2 6161 1653 Email : [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Maps and Air Photo Systems Forum [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Angie Cope Sent: Tuesday, 19 April 2005 11:33 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: MAPS-L: 1:50k coverage of the Islands of Sumatra? ================================= MAPS-L MAPS-L MAPS-L ================================= Date: Mon, 18 Apr 2005 16:57:04 -0700 From: [log in to unmask] Subject: 1:50k coverage of the Islands of Sumatra? 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!
