About this map

Orangetree sits at the heart of this Collier County landscape, serving as a pocket of residential development amidst the vast hydrological systems of southwest Florida. The area is defined by its named wetlands and strands, including the expansive Corkscrew Swamp and Bird Rookery Swamp to the west. A complex network of numbered avenues and local roads like Rookery Ln and Wild Turkey Dr carve into the natural environment, illustrating the modern expansion of rural subdivisions.

Distinctive rises in the terrain appear as islands and heads throughout the swampy lowlands, notably Big Corkscrew Island and Winchester Head. These features, along with Horsepen Strand and Winchester Strand, indicate the subtle elevation changes that dictate the flow of water and the placement of infrastructure. The map records a specific stage of Floridian land use where residential grids meet protected wilderness areas like the Shaggy Cypress Swamp.
