Introduction

How to Find Charts and Read the Guides

What Nautical Charts are used for


The University of Oregon Libraries Map Collection houses three collections of NOAA nautical charts.

  • Current: the most recent charts for the Western U.S. and a large selection of international charts.
  • Superseded Series: prior editions of charts covering primarily Oregon, Washington, and California.
  • Historic Charts: domestic charts of historic value, most printed prior to 1900. NOAA has created scanned versions of many superseded and historic charts.


Thank you to Fannie Powers of NOAA [http://www.noaa.gov/] and
Russell Guy of OmniMap [http://www.omnimap.com] for providing the lists on which our Current Nautical Chart Collection index is based, and Jon McConnell who originally created this guide.
