1986 Map of West of Franktown

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Chesapeake Bay bathymetry dominates this 1980s nautical study, detailing the underwater contours and marine topography off the Virginia coast. The map illustrates a complex network of submerged channels and shoals, providing a technical look at the seafloor character in an area essential for regional maritime navigation. A specific Disposal Area is demarcated in the southwestern portion of the sheet, reflecting mid-century maritime management and sediment deposition practices. Compiled from National Ocean Service hydrographic surveys, the data captures the precise depths and varying gradients of the coastal shelf at a time when precision mapping was becoming increasingly sophisticated through tide-coordinated data collection.
