1855 Japan, Nipon, Kiusiu and Sikok and a part of the coast of Korea : according to Krusenstern’s chart of 1827 / Hydrographic Office of the Admiralty

On east Coast of Korea, nearby Ping-hay bay, there are Tchain-san-tao n Fan-ling-tao.
On the Sea of Japan there are Argonaut-Taoshima and Dagelet Matsusima and Hornet Rocks.
The Dagelet-Matsushima's design is shabby

The news in Japan about U.K admiralty chart describes Dagelet-Matsushima is Japanese territory, seems to be this map. Now Im waiting the reply from U.K Hydrographic office's answer.

Admiralty chart on 19th century draws Ulluengdo is Japanese territory with Japan color ,found by Shimane Takeshima reserch instutute on Sanin-chuoh-sinpo news date on 24th of FEB.
（19世紀の英国海軍海図、韓国・鬱陵島を日本領で彩色-島根県竹島資料室の調査で発見

(Note; Ulleungdo is territory of Korea and this chart is not the evidence for territorial claim)



Revised chart of No.2347 published on 1862 and Dagelet shape more detailed by the report of H.M.S Actaeon's Dagelet Matsushima survey map which i already post it few years ago.
Another difference are as follows;
On east Coast of Korea, nearby Ping-hay bay, there are Tchain-san-tao n Fan-ling-tao are extinct.
On the Sea of Japan there are Argonaut-Taoshima and Dagelet Matsusima and Liancourt/Hornet Rocks.
East Coast of Korean peninsula details much more than 1855 edition.



1862.？ Admiralty chart 2347
Japan is compiled from a Japanese Government Map (Chart 2347)
The author illustrated firstly how the coastline of Japanese Islands was correctly improved in these charts as compared with the former Admiralty chart of Japan, which was compiled from Krusenstern's Atlas in 1827 with some corrections afterwards and published in 1862 (Fig. 1, 2.)
