Series 1: Maps, 1995-1997 Add to Shelf
Series 1 consists of reproductions of 7.5 minute (1:24,000) quadrangle maps annotated with the tsunami inundation boundary for that area. The tsunami inundation boundary is the upper limit of area expected to be covered by flood water from a tsunami caused by a magnitude 8.8 undersea earthquake. The maps are listed primarily from north to south and identifed with the map number and quadrangle name. Most of the maps were issued in 1995; two sheets were produced in 1997. The series also includes an index map. The maps are also available online.
