About this map

Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge meets the engineered landscapes of mid-1970s South Florida in this orthophotomap. The sharp contrast between the patterned agriculture of the W.R. Brown Farm Wildlife Management Area and the marshy expanses of the Everglades Wildlife Management Area illustrates the region's complex water management history. Infrastructure is central to this environment, defined by the Hillsboro Canal and an extensive levee system including Levee 39, Levee 7, and Levee 6. These barriers delineate large impoundment zones like Conservation Area No 1 and Conservation Area No 2A. Practical access into the sawgrass is noted by a single Airboat Trail, while a Pumping Station and several Gaging Sta placements highlight the continuous monitoring of these critical wetlands.
