1992 Map of Edwards

About this map

Edwards Air Force Base occupies this high desert landscape, serving as a critical hub for aviation development. The map details the extensive infrastructure of the Edwards Air Force Flight Test Center, including the specialized NASA Ames-Dryden Flight Research Facility positioned along the edge of the Rogers Lake playa. The residential core of Edwards is clearly defined, showing a network of streets like Mojave Blvd and Bailey Ave serving local families and personnel. Education is centralized within the base at sites such as Desert HS and Payne Jr HS. The surrounding terrain transitions from the developed airfield and tracking facilities to the natural rises of the Bissell Hills and Rosamond Hills, highlighting the isolation required for flight testing operations.
