1986 Map of West of Nandua Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Chesapeake Bay dominates this bathymetric study, revealing the complex underwater topography off the coast of Accomack County during the mid-1980s. Unlike standard topographic sheets, this specialized survey focuses on the submerged landscape, charting depth gradients and the seafloor profile. A distinct Channel is visible in the southwestern portion of the quadrangle, indicating the natural scouring and navigational paths carved through the bay floor. The lack of terrestrial culture or drainage features on this specific sheet emphasizes the importance of maritime navigation and marine geology. These hydrographic details were compiled by the National Ocean Service to document the shifting shoals and underwater contours as they existed before 1990s revisions.
