In the mid-19th century, Japan became the target of survey for its coast by the Western powers, and the Shogunate regime strongly resisted it but in vain. Japan's Meiji government, recognizing the importance of coastal survey, established Eoyonggwae at the Ministry of the Military in 1869 (Meiji 2nd year) to promote waterway survey project. At the time, Japan was not able to prepare nautical charts even for its own coasts and near seas by itself and so began the survey in collaboration with British destroyer HMS Sylvia in 1870. In 1871, Department of Navy was established at the Ministry of the Military together with Office of Waterways. The following year, the Ministry of Navy was established, while Office of Waterways was renamed Department of Waterways in 1886. This Department played a key role in making maps and charts for foreign countries called Oebangdo. In 1875, Japan's gunboat Unyo, approaching Ganghwa Island in Joseon, provoked Joseon's firing, eventually leading to the country's opening. And this time, the ostensible purpose of the boat's sailing was to survey Joseon's coasts. As Japan accepted the demand for survey by Britain and the United States, which was based on public law of all nations, Japan likewise approached Joseon's coast following the logic of the Western powers and conducted survey arbitrarily. And some nautical charts were inserted in several parts of Korean Fishery Chronicle(Hankuk Susanji). Comparing nautical charts inserted in Volume 3 of this Chronicle with nautical chart No. 320 of the Japanese navy, this study found that while there was no difference in borderlines of coast, the latter described the landform of coasts - observable from the seashore - in details whereas the former described the related landform very simply. Perhaps, it's because as nautical charts were principally related with military information, the producer of the nautical charts might have judged it was not proper to contain such information in Korean Fishery Chronicle read by ordinary people.
