The Arctic Ocean shoreline within the Alaska North Slope Borough dominates this 2017 topographic survey. The map provides a high-resolution view of the delicate coastal interface where the Beaufort Sea meets the northernmost reaches of the American continent. Notable landforms include the Jones Islands chain, featuring Leavitt Island and Pingok Island, which act as a barrier for Simpson Lagoon. This particular area is a critical point of interest for those studying Arctic geography or industrial activity near Milne Point. The grid lines of t14n r10e and t13n r11e provide a clear spatial framework for the coastal wetlands and tundra that define this frigid maritime environment.
