Summary Abstract:	This map forms part of a series of coloured soil maps, at scale 1:62,500, published in the 1950s, covering the Hawaiian Islands. The actual soil survey dates from 1935-39. These maps therefore date before the islands joined the USA. The maps were published by the USDA - Soil Conservation Service. This single map sheet covers the Island of Lanai. The soil legend is on 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: #47376
