NOAA CM-9303F vector shoreline, primarily dated 1993-07-10, shown against current OSM island-coastline reference; not a shoreline-change measurement or legal boundary.
Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked
A tall map plate shows two large landmasses and several smaller offshore features in pale blue water. Contrasting shoreline lines, shaded coastal bands, faint coordinate lines, and a scale bar are visible. A centered heading and a small legend appear above the map.
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.

Could not make out
Stated rather than guessed at.
The small legend and footer credits are present but not legible enough to transcribe confidently.
