In addition this agency worked to survey and produce detailed maps and renderings of the U.S. coast.

These maps are the most important data source for understanding the physical and ecological characteristics of the U.S. shoreline. The present map of the Florida coastline is notable in displaying the Overseas Railroad as the only main land transportation link between the Keys. At the time this map was published the overseas highway had yet to be built and tourism and travel in the region was limited to boat or train. This map is a highly detailed and accurate sea chart of Key West and an important historical view of a developing Florida. Published by the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey unknown

1929In-4, brossura, in buono stato di conservazione. In questo numero: "Nella Florida, classica terra di cicloni, s'e abbattuto un nuovo spaventoso uragano che ha scoperchiato o addirittura raso al suolo innumerevoli case e ha distrutto i raccolti. Vi sono state molte vittime." "A un passaggio a livello sulla linea Montebelluna-Padova, un autocarro con rimorchio, carico di barili di birra, è stato investito dal treno. Il conducente e un operaio che si trovava pure sull'autocarro sono rimasti uccisi; il fuochista della locomotiva ha riportato leggiere ferite." .
1950In-4, brossura, in buono stato di conservazione. In questo numero: "Tigri del mare contro naufraghi dell'aria. Al largo della Florida un bimotore con a bordo 65 uomini, quasi tutti braccianti agricoli, e precipitato in Atlantico. Passeggeri ed equipaggio hanno fatto in tempo a uscire dalla carlinga mettendo a mare vari battellini pneumatici di salvataggio. Ma immediatamente le acque si sono popolate di una torma di grossi pescicani che hanno fatto strage. Dalle navi accorse sono state tratte in salvo solo 37 persone." "Fuoco antiaereo in tempo di pace. Nel Bergamasco, tra il Serio e il Cherio, per proteggere vigne e frutteti dalla grandine che ogni anno provoca gravi danni, sono state sparate con successo, all'avvicinarsi di un minaccioso nembo, varie serie di razzi che, scoppiando a grande altezza, hanno interrotto la grandinata e sconvolto la formazione temporalesca che si è sminuzzata e dispersa; cosicche le piantagioni sono state salve.".
1928In-4, brossura, in buono stato di conservazione. In questo numero: "Una brutta sorpresa. Nel porto di Pensacola (Florida), un velivolo, che si era appena staccato da terra, precipitava sopra un battello da diporto. Le tre persone che erano sull'imbarcazione rimasero miracolosamente incolumi. Il tenente che pilotava l'apparecchio riporto ferite lievissime." "Un dramma nella Manica. Una barca di salvataggio uscita da Rye, presso Folkestone, per accorrere in aiuto di un piroscafo, al ritorno, non lontano dalla terra, veniva ingoiata da una formidabile ondata. Tutti i diciassette uomini dell'equipaggio annegarono, sotto gli occhi delle loro famiglie, che si erano raccolte a pregare su una rupe.".
