Chesapeake Bay dominates this maritime survey, providing a clear perspective on the aquatic boundaries where the city of Poquoson meets the open water. The map is primarily a hydrographic study of these coastal reaches, highlighting the passage of the Intracoastal Waterway through the southern bay. It serves as a precise record of modern jurisdictional lines at sea, where the boundaries of York County, Poquoson County, and Northampton County intersect. The lack of terrestrial features emphasizes the importance of this area as a nautical corridor and a point of administrative convergence in the lower Chesapeake region.
