The new Chesapeake Bay mosaic release by USGS.

USGS has released a new mosaic of the Chesapeake Bay.

The Washington D.C.-Baltimore-Philadelphia-New York City corridor can be clearly seen (look for silvery purple) as can the Chesapeake and Delaware Bays and the coastal Atlantic barrier islands from Fishermans Island, Virginia to Sandy Hook, New Jersey.
