2013 Map of West of Jamesville

About this map

Chesapeake Bay dominates this map, representing the expansive waters off the Eastern Shore of Virginia in the early twenty-first century. As a strictly maritime chart of the waters west of the Jamesville quadrangle, it focuses on the aquatic geography between the mainland and the western shore of the bay. The absence of landmasses or terrestrial landmarks on this specific sheet highlights the navigational and ecological importance of the bay's open waters during this period. It serves as a spatial reference for the maritime environment of Accomack County, documenting the state of the hydrography as recorded by the U.S. Geological Survey in 2013.
