Island of Maui

• General Data: USGS Hawai'i Clearinghouse: Maui Data
• area is ~70*45km = 8.5*5.5m grid at 8K*8K
• 10m DEMs are available from USGS, 18 files to cover the island
• all but eastern tip in UTM zone 4, Hana in zone 5
• some Maui DRGs are online on the SOEST site: Island DRG
• SOEST has Shoreline Imagery and Data for Maui
  • however, the files are troublesome - the JPEGs lack CRS info, and the TIFs appear to be badly formed output from PhotoShop7?
  • even more detailed are the Ortho-rectified Historical Shoreline Mosaics
  • SHOALS LIDAR bathymetry is browsable
• history: in 1995, Paul Hugel did a low-res VRML Maui
• old aerials exist: greyscale OrthoQuads from 1977-1978
• LandSat7 data is pretty good, a couple of scenes could be stitched together for a fairly cloud-free image:
  
• 00.08.04 extracted a BT of area (738555.0, 2277046.8), (76283.1, 51414.6), put on BT page
• 00.09.12 received a 50m subsample showing the color quality possible with LandSat7 - it is excellent:
  
• my friend Jack's house: latlon (20.7699 -156.31827), UTM4 (779210, 2299000), USGS quad 'kilohana'
• MODIS image is unfortunately too small at 250m:
