Excerpt from A Geological Reconnaissance of Panama
However, more than to any other individual, the writer is indebted to A. A. Olsson for advice, encouragement, and active assistance in field and office.
The Lake Nicaragua, Panama, Bogota, and Barranquilla sheets Of the 1 map published by the American Geographical Society of New York, the Lake Nicaragua, Panama Canal, Peninsula of Azu ero, and Cape Corrientes sheets of the World Aeronautical Chart, published by the Aeronautical Chart Service of the United States Air Force, have furnished the topographic basis for the maps of the land areas, supplemented by various maps of surveys by the Department of Maintenance and Operation of the Panama Canal, and by maps of the various Oil, mining, and fruit companies listed above. In some areas, where no such surveys have been made, the writer has made his own.
