It provides a systematic guide to the symbols, abbreviations, and notations used by the Afdeeling Hydrographie to communicate complex maritime data. The chart is organised into distinct categories: general abbreviations, seabed composition, topographical features, and light signals for navigation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach section functions as a functional reference tool for mariners and cartographers. The document details how to represent various depths, coastal characteristics, and hazards such as shipwrecks or submerged rocks. The right-hand column focuses on light signals, illustrating the specific patterns and colours used for lighthouses and lightships. The bottom section includes technical notes regarding depth measurements, datum levels, and the calculation of longitude relative to the Greenwich meridian.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVisually, the work is defined by its grid-based structure and precise, utilitarian typography. The layout reflects the administrative rigour of the early twentieth-century Dutch naval department. The paper shows signs of its archival history, including a stamp from June 1921 and handwritten annotations in the lower margin. This print offers a view into the history of maritime navigation and the standardisation of nautical communication. It is a piece of technical ephemera that documents the methods used to map the seas during a period of significant development in international hydrographic standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/tafel-van-peilingen-in-het-nieuwe-diep-leonard-schenk\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eTafel van Peilingen in het Nieuwe Diep by Leonard Schenk\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/plattegrond-van-amsterdam-deel-rechtsonder-frederik-willem-greebe\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePlattegrond van Amsterdam (deel rechtsonder) by Frederik Willem Greebe\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ministerie van Marine","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59461403345231,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59461433033039,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59461433065807,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59461433098575,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59461433131343,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59461433164111,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59461433196879,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59461433229647,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59461433262415,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59461433295183,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59461433327951,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59461433360719,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Teekens-en-Verkortingen_Poster_CompositorV1_1794372838234.jpg?v=1794373131","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/fr\/products\/teekens-en-verkortingen-ministerie-van-marine","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
