The map is estimated to be the most ancient Korean map among the ancient Korean maps discovered. the names of the places, major ports and islands are marked alongside the waterways. It clearly emphasizes the waterways rather than the land routes by drawing the waterways deep inside the lands. Also, Taemado (Tsushima) is marked with other Korean islands such as Ulleundo, Usando (Dokdo), Jejudo and others.
