Summary Abstract:	This is part of a series ten coloured soil maps at scale :1: 62,500, published in the 1950s, covering the main island of Hawaii. The actual soil survey dates from 1935-39. These maps therefore date before the islands joined the USA. The maps were published by the US Soil Conservation Service. The soil legend is in a separate sheet, archived as WOSSAC 47376, with coloured soil mapping units which are grouped together as Soil Associations. These Associations combine Topographic and Soil Series which are listed and described in the legend. See also WOSSAC Ids: #47367 #47368 #47369 47370 #47371#47372 #47273 #47374 #47375 and #47376
