With the imminent termination of the United States' administration
of the Trust Territories of the Pacific Islands, it became imperative
to differentiate between privately-owned lands and public- or
government-owned lands, and to resolve foreign claims. Under the
direction of the District Land Management Officer and Senior Land
Commissioners in each District, native teams were mobilized in
each municipality to mark, monument and panel "the private-public"
boundary, and as many private boundary points as possible. Survey
crews from R. M. Towill Corporation, Honolulu, Hawaii; and Jones
Associates, Seattle, Washington, have been in the field since
October 1974, expanding a control network based on the U.S.G.S. survey
monuments which were established in 1969.
The majority of the boundary points will have their positions
computed by analytical aerotriangulation with conventional surveys
for unpanelled points.
Final products will consist of the following:
1. Aerial photography and mosaics at 1:10,000 and
1:40,000.
2. Topographic maps at 1:10,000.
Orthophoto maps at 1:2,000.
Cadastral plat maps ranging from 1:100 to 1:1,000.
