----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Mary Anne, Though your request was to respond to you personally I think that others may profit from this information, so I put it on the list. As most aerial photographs are flown for military surveys, or at least scrutenized by them for sensitive military data, you usually can contact best the military survey in question. Unfortunately for Indonesia I only know the name: Bakosurtanal (Badan Koordinasi Survey dan Pemetaan [National Institute for mapping and inventory of natural resources]) in Cibinong (close to Jakarta). From an article in a 1993 issue of the "Kartografisch Tijdschrift" [Cartographic Journal] I know that there are maps (1:25,000 and 1:50,000) for Jawa and Bali, but from pre-colonial times. Under the TRANS-V programme aerial photos were taken of 520,000 sq.km, mainly in Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Sumatra and Eastern Timor. For pre-colonial aerial photographs you might also consult the Dutch Topographic Survey: Topografische Dienst Nederland Library Bendienplein 5 7815 AC Emmen tel:+31-5910-96230 fax:+31-5910-96222 Jan Smits Mapcurator Royal Library, the National Library of The Netherlands [log in to unmask]
