Buckland sits at the northern edge of this Arctic survey, concentrated near a bend in the Buckland River. The settlement infrastructure is clearly delineated, showing the Po and the local transit network including Audrey Avenue and Airport Road leading to the Buckland Airport. The surrounding landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses and wetlands, with the meandering river joined by numerous tributaries such as Kanik Cr, Keeyuk Cr, and Fairhaven Cr. This 2014 data reflects the modern footprint of the community, including the Landfill Access road, providing a detailed record of remote habitation and transportation in the Northwest Arctic Borough. The terrain beyond the village quickly shifts to undeveloped tundra marked by minor drainages like Koobuk Cr and Canyon Cr.
