Date: Thu, 06 Nov 2008 17:23:09 -1000 From: Ross Togashi <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] References: <[log in to unmask]> <[log in to unmask]> 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.
