Depth soundings and some sandbars are noted along the entire east coast, but not at all along the west coast. Many coastal towns are recorded, the most prominent being Goa, Cananor, Calichut, Crangenor, Cotchyn, Porca, Coulan, Toutekryn, Negepatnam, Fort St. George, Pallacatta, and Masulipatam. The mountains inland from the Kerala coast are shown conjecturally extending northward. Two elephants are depicted under a palm tree northwest of Fort St. George (present-day Chennai) as well as two ostriches. Two tigers are shown near the Karnataka coast. Palm trees and other vegetation is scattered around the map. Four European caravels appear in the sea along with eight local fishing vessels.
