Re: VTM Plot Data Inquiry
Ken-ichi Ueda
Unfortunately, if the quad isn't on the website, we simply don't have
the original map. We digitized every plot map in our collection, but
not all quads had plot maps, either because they were never surveyed
in the original project or because the plot map had been lost in the
intervening years (loaned out and never returned, lost in moves,
etc.).
If you're interested, I can find out who currently holds the physical
paper maps and put you in contact with them. They might be able to
help you ensure that we didn't miss any, but I'd say that's long shot.
Good luck with your research.
