Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A large rectangular nautical chart shows irregular coastlines, numerous islands, waterways, depth soundings, navigation lines, and chart symbols. Land areas are shaded yellow, water areas pale blue and white, with magenta circular navigation markings and small marginal diagrams and notes.

A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

Taken from the record

Not observed in the image — supplied by the archive's own catalogue, and repeated here so the two stay distinguishable.

Catalogue record identifies the document as a 1969 nautical chart produced by the NOAA Office of Coast Survey, at a scale of 1:240,000, from the NOAA Historical Map & Chart Collection. The record lists it as public domain.

Could not make out

Stated rather than guessed at.

Most small marginal notes, labels, and chart symbols cannot be read at this image size.

Credit this to NOAA Office of Coast Survey when you use it.

Material goes off the web without anyone deciding that it should: a host lapses, a gallery is retired, a link stops resolving. Holding a copy — with its provenance, its checksum and its holder's terms recorded beside it — is much of why this archive exists. If you are looking for something whose original has since gone, write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com and a full-size copy of what is held here will be sent to you.

Recorded verbatim from the provenance sidecar taken at retrieval — this archive does not restate a holder's terms in its own words, does not add a restriction the holder did not state, and does not abridge one.

The archive holds its own copy of that file and will supply it on request; it is not re-served here, because the holder serves it better and a second copy is a second thing to go stale.
