We have a patron looking for topographic coverage of an island off the
north coast of Sumatra, Pulau Weh.  The best we can do is an old AMS
lettered series 1:250,000 map (sheet # NB46-12).  I see that the
Indonesian govt. has covered Sumatra at 1:50K, but these are apparently
restricted.  (It looks from the index that he'd want 2 sheets, 0431-53 and
0431-54).
 
Does anyone have any topographic coverage of this island at a scale larger
than 1:250,000?  Age isn't so important, since he's interested in the
physical characteristics of the island.  I can have him get in touch with
you and maybe get at least a photocopy or work something else out.  Or, if
a vendor monitoring this list has something, the patron would be
interested in purchasing the map(s).
 
Also, I didn't find evidence of any old AMS WWII series covering that area
at better than 1:250,000, at least not in the indexes or series that we
have.
 
thanks,
        Mark
