Unless someone has a copy, no. It isn't on sourceforge, as far as I can 
see. The underlying files were E020S10.*, the DEM being 54MB, so a bit big 
to distribute with the package. "Small file" and "remoe sensing" seem to 
be contradictory. Shall I add a new Madagascar page to the sourceforge 
page - since the page needs editing to add a link to Prof. Ripley's VC++ 
Windows binary of rgdal 

(http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/rgdal_0.2-7.zip) 

anyway?

By the way, has anybody tried to build Rmap against the VC++ gdal12.dll in 
Prof. Ripley's build of rgdal? Contact me for details of his approach.
