1986 Map of West of Jamesville

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Chesapeake Bay dominates this bathymetric study, revealing the complex underwater topography west of Jamesville. Compiled by the National Ocean Service and the U.S. Geological Survey, the map focuses on the submerged landscape during the late 1980s and early 1990s. The most prominent navigational feature is a long, linear Channel cutting diagonally through the bay, likely a primary artery for maritime traffic. This map is distinct for its singular focus on depth gradients and seafloor contours rather than terrestrial landmarks. It provides researchers and maritime historians with a clear view of the deep-water trenches and shoals that dictated vessel movement along the Eastern Shore of Virginia during this period.
