Hi all;

 

I have several students who are working on a planning project and they are mapping specific sites as part of their design work. After trying the standard places (PC lib at UT, etc.) and going through maps I have, and some other web resources (including agencies in the respective countries), I am running out of options. Here is what I am trying to find:

 

In both cases, large-scale (as possible) topographic maps:

 

Locations are:

 

Tarifa, Spain (harbor on the Strait of Gibraltar)

 

Ciudad Del Este Paraguay

 

For Tarifa, I went to the Spanish Geographical Agency site and located a topo map of the area and got in close. It has contours, but NO elevation data (spot heights or contour elevations) indicated.

I showed this and what I expect the contour intervals to be, etc.

 

Does anyone have a topo map of these 2 cities that I could have a section scan of, or do you know of a website/agency that provides this? Thanks in advance.
