Like I said - harbors. Jane's has accurate harbor maps going all the way back to 1906, but it required sounding every few yards with a plumbline. Doing that for every coastline was a near-impossible job. I have a lot of WW2 Pacific maps. Places like Midway are accurate down to the foot. Others have no soundings at all.
