Island-scale maritime reference context for South Fox Island: NOAA bathymetry, GNIS named bays and harbors, and locally mapped OSM waterfront features; not a navigational chart.
Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked
A vertically oriented map shows a long, tapered landmass with pale shaded relief and a dark coastline. Blue water surrounds it, with faint bathymetric contour lines extending offshore. A small legend appears at the upper left, and a black-and-white scale bar is near the lower left.
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.
Catalogued as an atlas plate in the Maritime Atlas collection. The drawing is based on archive data in EPSG:3078, with data attributed to OpenStreetMap contributors, USGS GNIS, USGS 3DEP, and NOAA NCEI Great Lakes bathymetry. The archive description identifies it as a reference map rather than a navigational chart.
Could not make out
Stated rather than guessed at.
Small legend entries, labels around the coastline, and offshore annotations are not legible at this resolution.
