Chesapeake Bay dominates this maritime survey west of Franktown, offering a clear view of the open water and navigational routes within the Virginia coastal system in 2022. The map highlights the modern path of the Intracoastal Waterway, a critical corridor for marine traffic along the Eastern Shore. Because this particular quadrant covers a section of the bay where elevation data did not meet accuracy standards for contouring, the focus remains strictly on the hydrography and the expansive reach of the water. It is a precise record of the bay's navigable surface and the spatial relationship between these major waterways as they existed in the early 2020s.
