Dear Madam/Sir,
Thank you for your email.
We are a cartographic company, and one of our areas of research is the inventory of topographic mapping published by national mapping organizations (both civilian and military), therefore we have a database containing metadata on topographic mapping activities.
To the best of my knowledge, this particular map is marked as "Unclassified', and the reference was obtained from several sources, including my personal visit to the Ministry of Lands, Survey and Natural Resources in Nuku'alofa, Tonga. We also have smaill .jpg file of this particular map, but unfortunately, the geographic names contained there are not clearly visible. If you'd like to provide me with your email address, I'd be happy to forward this file for your reference, as this form does not allow to attach graphic attachments.
Sincerely,
Michal Okonek
