Date: Thu, 6 Nov 2008 15:57:00 -0700 From: Ken Rockwell <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Naomi, I have the chart #83094 before me; it's a nice large scale, 1:35,000, but there are no contours--no doubt because there's hardly any land above sea level! There are some numbers I take to be spot heights (each with a line above it; is this the symbology for land elevations, as opposed to the more numerous soundings, perhaps?) as well as soundings and a few depth isolines. It's only one atoll, and I don't see any other Tuvalu charts in my set, but if it's of any use, it's available for I-LL. As for JOG SB60-06, we don't have it; but at 1:250,000 I doubt this would have much elevation detail, esp. if other islands in the group are like this one. --Ken Rockwell -----Original Message----- From: Maps, Air Photo & Geospatial Systems Forum [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Angie Cope Sent: Thursday, November 06, 2008 3:37 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Fwd: map of Tuvalu? ----- Forwarded Message ----- From: "Naomi E Heiser" <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Thursday, November 6, 2008 3:24:47 PM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central Subject: map of Tuvalu? A student is looking for a map (preferably digital) that shows the island group of Tuvalu, with contours or elevation data. We do not have anything in our collection that is detailed enough for the student to use. If anyone has the nautical chart #83094 (D 5.356:83094/995), "South Pacific Ocean, Tuvalu, Funafuti Atoll" by U.S. DMA, could you take a look at it and see if it has elevation information for Tuvalu? Another possibility: does anyone have JOG SB60-06 in their collection? If anyone can suggest another resource, or can offer us something on ILL, that would be wonderful. The student can digitize a map if necessary.
