摘要

The Hydrographic Office is commonly known for its navigational charts. However, there is plenty of evidence to show how although chart production and supply was its main objective, there were also many other areas of activity in which it was involved. The head of this department was the Hydrographer to the Admiralty Board, a man well versed in hydrographic surveying and navigation, but also many other aspects of the wider field of nautical science. Individuals approached the Hydrographer for advice on a range of nautical matters. He, in return, acted as a consultant, providing free advice on areas of his expertise; advice that was given to civilians and military personnel. The office of Hydrographer to the Admiralty Board soon became recognised as the Admiralty's and Royal Navy's expert in all matters relating to navigation, charting and nautical science.
