2000 Map of Babeldaob North
USGS Topo · Published 2004About this map
Ngerchelong and Ngaraard municipalities occupy the northern reaches of Babeldaob Island in this detailed survey based on imagery from the turn of the millennium. The landscape is defined by its complex shoreline, where the Philippine Sea meets the Pacific Ocean across narrow peninsulas. High points like Meteolchol look down upon coastal villages and traditional settlements including Ollei and Mengellang. The map reflects a community integrated with its maritime environment, showing coral reefs and named passages such as Iuengruil and Olkong. To the south, the Ngaremeduu Conservation Area protects the diverse ecology of the estuaries and mangroves. Inland, local institutions appear at the heart of village life, including the Bethany church and educational sites like Ngaraard Sch and Chat Sch.
