Title is written on a label in black ink and affixed to the map. Scale and legend are not given; orientation and annotation are written along the borders on all four sides with north at the bottom. The map offers pictorial depictions of settlements, military posts, and boundary markers. Annotations describe the jurisdictions of military units. Patrol boats between Ou River and Wenzhou Bay are depicted with images. Panshi Regiment was established in the first year of Qing Kangxi’s reign, 1662, to be responsible for coastal defense.
Panshi Regiment added three more units in the 56th year of Qing Kangxi’s reign, 1717; in 1724, Panshi Regiment became under the jurisdiction of Leqing Brigade.

Each battalion inside and outside of the Wenzhou Bay’s middle line was identified.
