    A nautical chart is

    a printed reproduction

    of carefully gatheredhydrographic data for an

    area of interest. As the

    chart primarily serves

    the needs of the mariner,

    it shows not only the

    nature and form of the

    coast, the depths of the

    water, character of the

    bottom and locations of

    dangers to navigation,

    but also the rise and fallof the tides, the loca-

    tions of artificial aids to

    navigation, the direction

    and strength of currents,

    and the behavior of the

    earths magnetism as

    it affects the mariners

    compass.

    The chart includes

    appropriate land areas

    History of creation of nautical chartsthat are visible from

    the water and that may

    include landmarks of useto navigation.

    Historic methodsof charting

    In the latter half of

    the 19th century, com-

    prehensive hydrographic

    surveys by United States

    Coast and GeodeticSurvey produced the first

    charts of sufficient detail

    and accuracy to be of

    everyday use to mari-

    ners navigating Floridas

    coastal waterways. The

    methodology for nauti-

    cal chart preparation

    departed from that of

    topographic mapping,

    which was applied to all

    land areas and features

    inshore of the high-waterline. Topographic map-

    ping was based on the

    planetable, a device that

    resulted in an essentially

    complete map when the

    field work was done.

    With the planetable, the

    topographer constructed

    his map as he surveyed,

    delineating the high-

    water line, sketchingcontours, and locating

    roads and other cultural

    features, all with the ter-

    rain in full view. How-

    ever, the planetable was

    not suited for use in a

    moving boat, and most of

    the terrain was hidden

    from the hydrographers,

    as we call makers of

    nautical charts.

    Hydrographic sur-

    veys were undertakento represent the water

    area of a portion of the

    earths surface by means

    of depths taken at vari-

    ous locations throughout

    an area, in sufficient

    numbers to enable the

    hydrographer to delin-

    eate all underwater fea-

    tures of special signifi-

    cance to the navigator,such as channels, reefs,

    banks, shoals, rocks, and

    other characteristic sub-

    marine features. It was

    and still is under-

    stood that the resulting

    chart represented these

    features at the time of the

    survey, and that as the

    dynamic coastal environ-

    ment changed, revisions

    would be necessary.

    In the 1800s, thework of actually survey-

    ing the water area on a

    given project usually fol-

    lowed the establishment

    of control points on land

    and the completion of

    the topographic mapping

    in the vicinity. These

    operations furnished the

    latitudes and longitudes

    of the stations that wereto be used in the hydro-

    graphic work for locat-

    ing the boats positions

    during the survey.

    The hydrographer

    first prepared a working

    sheet, or boat sheet,

    on which a projection

    (meridians of longitude

    and parallels of latitude)

    was laid down, the con-

    trol points plotted, and

    the high- and low-waterlines transferred from

    the planetable survey.

    Occasionally, additional

    control stations were

    established by the hydro-

    graphic party. Proposed

    sounding lines were

    plotted in pencil on the

    working sheet in accor-

    dance with a planned

    system designed formost effective depiction

    of known bottom fea-

    tures. The hydrographer

    attempted to follow these

    lines as he progressed

    with the work.

    On the water, the

    hydrographer recorded

    information in a sound-

    ing volume, to be later

    plotted in the office as a

    smooth sheet, which

    became the official

    record of the survey. A

    complete smooth sheetis a record of the sound-

    ings taken during the

    field survey, together

    with other data necessary

    for a proper interpreta-

    tion of the survey, such

    as depth curves, bottom

    characteristics, names of

    geographic features, con-

    trol station designations

    and locations, and tide

    records used to relate

    soundings to a reference

    datum.

    Soundings were

    generally made from

    small boats. The early

    boats may have carried

    sails, but during actual

    sounding operations, the

    boat would have been

    powered solely by crew

    members manning oars,

    providing the necessary

    maneuverability and

    precise handling at low

    speeds or while stopped.A typical field party

    engaged in inshore

    hydrography usually

    comprised two hydrog-

    raphers or engineers

    (one to direct operations

    and one to operate a

    sextant for locating the

    survey boats position

    by measuring angles

    between shore stations),

    a leadsman to take the

    soundings, a recorder to

    transcribe the soundings

    and the observed angles,

    and the crewmen neces-

    sary to operate the boat.

    In some instances, addi-

    tional personnel on shore

    assisted in determining

    the boats location.

    Two essential opera-

    tions were performed

    simultaneously: the

    measurement of depths

    (soundings) and the

    determination of thegeographic positions

    (latitudes and longitudes)

    of the soundings so that

    they could be charted in

    correct relation to each

    other and to the sur-

    rounding topographical

    features.

    Sextant angles

    taken in the survey boat

    between pairs of control

    stations on shore gave an

    accurate position. When

    feasible, theodolite

    angles could be taken at

    two shore stations upon a

    flag hoisted in the boat.

    For sounding in

    depths up to 15 feet, the

    leadsman used a gradu-

    ated pole with a disk onthe lower end to prevent

    its sinking into a muddy

    bottom. At greater

    depths, he would employ

    a leadline. A skilled

    leadsman could employ

    either device with the

    boat moving forward,

    but the boat would

    necessarily be stopped

    for the sextant readingsto determine position.

    Another method of posi-

    tion determination was

    by running out ranges

    from shore and fixing the

    positions by time. This

    method, which allowed

    collection of many more

    soundings in a work

    day, became practicable

    when the oarsmen were

    replaced by an engine

    that allowed the boat to

    move at a constant speed.

    Each sounding

    recorded needed cor-

    rection for the height of

    the tide at the time of

    measurement, in order

    to refer the depth to the

    sounding datum or refer-ence plane, usually mean

    low water. During the

    hydrographic work, per-

    sonnel at a nearby tide

    station would maintain

    a log of the rise and fall

    of the tide. The hydrog-

    rapher would later use

    this information to adjust

    each sounding for the

    state of the tide.During the survey,

    the boat crew recorded

    the nature of the bottom

    encountered as sound-

    ings were made. On the

    finished chart, this infor-

    mation would be of use

    to mariners evaluating

    suitability of the bottom

    for anchoring. The crew

    also recorded positions

    and condition of man-

    made aids to navigation.

    Upon completion of

    field work, the hydrogra-

    pher would have col-

    lected and assembled all

    information necessary

    to prepare a nautical

    chart. The smooth sheet,

    relevant topographicmaps, and other informa-

    tion would be passed to

    the cartographers respon-

    sible for producing the

    final chart in a form suit-

    able for printing in large

    quantities.

    The skill and dedi-

    cation of the hydrogra-

    phers, expressed through

    the artistry of the cartog-raphers, gave charts of

    immense practical value

    to the mariners for which

    they were created. Today

    we admire them for their

    esthetic value and for the

    realization they instill of

    the immense labor and

    care that went into their

    creation. To chart just

    one typical bay on Flor-

    idas coast, hydrogra-

    phers spent many weeks

    or months making and

    recording thousands of

    soundings along with

    a position and tide cor-

    rection for each using

    techniques that could

    be accurately described

    as paper and pencilbefore the word elec-

    tronic had been coined.

    Yet where we can evalu-

    ate positional accuracy

    of early nautical charts,

    it is almost always found

    to be excellent. And the

    basic approach created

    by the early hydrogra-

    phers, from data col-

    lection to production of

    the finished chart, was

    sufficiently sound that it

    is still in use today; only

    the tools have changed.

    Mid-20th centuryAfter World War II,

    hydrographers creating

    nautical charts ben-

    efited from technologi-

    cal advances that made

    possible small, portable,accurate electronic depth

    sounders. Even with

    the increased efficiency

    afforded by the new

    device, however, the old

    technique for position

    determination use

    of a sextant to measure

    angles between stations

    on shore remained the

    state of the art. And theleadsman still had a role

    to play: Coast and Geo-

    detic Survey Descrip-

    tive Report 8034,

    dated 1953 reported that

    portable depth recorder

    (Model 808-J) was used

    where the depths and

    character of the bottom

    permitted. On the exten-

    sive shoal flats, in areas

    where marine vegetation

    cut out the fathometer

    return, and in investi-

    gating shoal spots, a

    wooden pole, graduated

    in feet, was used.

    The 1953 report and

    others from 1954 provide

    further insights into the

    equipment and methods.

    In a 1953 survey of the

    waters from Longboat

    Pass to Tampa Bay, theprimary vessel was to be

    the vessel Sosbee, which

    was 68 feet in length.

    She had a wooden hull,

    a turn radius of 100

    meters at 1,000 rpm and

    a speed of 7 knots. She

    was used only part of

    one day, when she was

    found to be too unhandy

    in strong winds. Remain-ing soundings were done

    from a 25-foot skiff,

    powered by two 10 hp

    outboard motors. The

    skiff was based at Cortez

    for most of the survey,

    then moved to a shipyard

    near the mouth of the

    Manatee River for opera-

    tions in that area.

    A portable, auto-

    matic tide gauge was

    maintained at Cortez.

    Hourly heights were used

    without correction

    no allowance was made

    for distance from the

    gage. The tidal datum

    was mean low water, and

    headquarters deter-

    mined the gauge eleva-

    tion.

    Reflecting another

    technological advance,control stations were

    located on aerial photo-

    graphs, and shorelines

    and topography were

    determined from photo-

    grammetric sheets. Still,

    sounding positions were

    determined by the usual

    three-point fix method

    using a sextant where

    possible, but otherwiseestimated from shore-

    line details. Bottom

    samples were taken to

    allow better definition

    than hard and soft,

    which were the only

    annotations on earlier

    charts.

    In all, 16.5 square

    miles were surveyed,

    with 3,170 positions

    mapped. Pole soundings

    totaled 6,849. Transects

    totaled 486.7 miles,

    including 24.1 by the

    Sosbee. The hydrogra-

    phers were confident that

    1-foot accuracy had been

    achieved.

    Charting inthe 1990s

    Nautical chart

    makers in the 1990s

    benefit from additional

    technological advances

    realized since the 1950s.

    Most significant is

    computerization, which

    allows efficient manage-

    ment and manipulation

    of the immense quanti-

    ties of data resultingfrom measuring depths

    at many thousands of

    places in a body of

    water. The calculations

    involved to correct the

    field data for tides and

    other variables must

    be performed for each

    datum, an extremely

    labor-intensive task

    when done with pencil

    on paper, but one readily

    managed by computers.

    The computer programs

    called Geographic

    Information Systems

    are important to todays

    chart creation process,

    as they automate precise

    placement on the chart

    of depth data and readily

    assist such tasks as cre-

    ation of depth contours.

    Also, workers using GISin other fields, such as

    environmental planning,

    marine animal migration

    studies, oil spill cleanup,

    etc., can share the data.

    Specialized mapping

    programs and graphics

    applications have almost

    completely supplanted

    the traditional methods

    of cartography; rarelydoes an artist apply ink

    to vellum in order to

    create a nautical chart or

    map. Instead, the cartog-

    rapher guides a mouse or

    uses a pressure-sensitive

    stylus on a graphics

    tablet to transform the

    plethora of high qual-

    ity, precise data into an

    understandable, useful,

    and esthetically pleasing

    product for the boater.

    Another technol-

    ogy that has transformed

    cartography in the 1990s

    is the Global Positioning

    System, a satellite-based

    means to determine

    positions on the earths

    surface. Using the most

    accurate kind of GPS,

    known as Differential

    GPS, positions can easilyand quickly be measured

    to one meter (about 1.1

    yard) or better. When

    the workboat arrives at

    a desired site, the DGPS

    system records the depth,

    the time (for use in tide

    correction), and the loca-

    tion.

    In ideal situations,

    the DGPS data collectorcan be connected directly

    to the depth sounder

    so that the only action

    required by the field

    *NEWThe week of Sept. 11, the 54-year-old Manatee Shopping Guide announced on itsback cover that it was the last issue. Staff was let go, even one delivery woman,after 41 loyal years, was told sorry, no more job. We stepped in to change that.

    We hired some shopping guide folks, consulted with others, and we are ready tostart anew for you. And we are local. Theres no big group and no out-of-townstock-owners, just folks who live and work in Manatee County like you do. We doNOT outsource jobs (like our competitor) and we have been publishing news inManatee County for more than 16 years. We started humble in 1992, just as withthis venture, but we plan to go gangbusters into season, giving our advertisersthe best possible product by providing high circulation, great home delivery, andkeeping costs low. For readers, we hope to provide bargains and information in

    abundance. You know us as The Islander, THE newspaper on Anna Maria Island,

    carrying on a reporting tradition that began in the 1950s. Were the little enginethat could. We hope youll jump aboard with us and continue the tradition ofthe shopping guide in Manatee County. We promise to make it worthwhile to youand to our local economy.

    Publisher, Bonner Joy
