2015 Map of Heber

About this map

Calexico and Heber dominate this southern portion of the Imperial Valley, showing a landscape defined by an intensive network of irrigation infrastructure along the international border. The intricate system of water management is visible through numerous named features such as the Central Main Canal, Wistaria Canal, and Beech Canal, which transform the arid terrain into a productive agricultural region. The New River meanders through the central portion of the map, flanked by various drains and laterals that support the surrounding fields. Near the border with the United States of America and Estados Unidos Mexicanos, the Calexico International Airport serves as a critical transportation hub, while the Mountain View Cemetery stands as a local landmark. The geometric regularity of the roads and canals illustrate a highly engineered landscape designed for water distribution and farming.
