Title: American Samoa Submarine Cables

Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data

Description:

Abstract:

Includes BLAST cable, ASH cables, wastewater outfall pipe and the 2018 Hawaiiki submarine cable. BLAST cable and wastewater outfall piper were digitized from the ASTCA (American Samoa Telecommunications Authority) pdf map dated 11/7/2017. Positions for the proposed cable route were surveyed in October 2016 by the EGS (Asia) Ltd. The cable positions taken from chart No.004 of 007 were used to digitize Hawaiki Submarine Cable System Segment B1. The two ASH cables were digitized from this chart as well.

Purpose: American Samoa underwater cables and wastewater pipe
