This map was published in the work 'O Porto de Macau: ante-projecto para o seu melhoramento' by Adolfo Ferreira de Loureiro, a Portuguese military engineer. He is known for the projects of improvement on the Ports of Leixões, Lisbon and Macau. On the chart are depicted the Macau Peninsula and the Islands of 'Lapa' , Taipa -still divided and only connected by a dam, big Taipa also appears with the name 'Kaikong'- Malau Chau and part of D. João. Being a hydrographic chart, are given soundings surveyed in 1884 with a project to the Inner Harbor, jetty of Taipa, docks of Green Island and Praia Grande, dike of Taipa and marginal covering between the Green Island and Pac-Siac. All the proposed areas of construction are colored pink. Macau is fairly detailed with the representation of buildings replaced by the geometry typical of a plan.
