1978 Map of Kahana

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Kahana and the coastal settlement of Kaaawa occupy the windward shoreline of Oahu as captured in this late 1970s orthophotoquad. Produced through optical scanning of aerial photography, this imagery emphasizes the sharp relief of the coastal mountain ridges and the expansive coral reef structures extending into the Pacific Ocean. The transition from the steep, vegetated valleys of the interior to the narrow coastal strip reveals the concentrated settlement patterns along the shore, reaching down to the northern edge of Kaneohe Bay. At the center of the coastline, Kaoio Point serves as a prominent natural landmark where the mountains meet the sea, providing a clear visual record of the island's topography and coastal development during this era of land resource documentation.
