This is a detailed chart of the Chinese coastline from the city of Canton -Guangzhou- southwards to the Island of Lankeet. To the left of the survey are further depictions of parcels of land, as they appear from the sea. Below in three columns is a very detailed and lengthy set of maritime instructions as stipulated and set down by Joseph Huddart in 1786. The set of the survey, the legend and the side land views provide detailed sailing instructions and coasted profiles for navigating lower Chu River from Macau via the Bocca Tigris narrows below the Anunghoi Fort up to Whampoa, Dane's Island, and the foreign settlements of Guangzhou
