1973 Map of Imperial Municipal Airport

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Imperial Municipal Airport anchors the southwestern corner of this Chase County landscape, reflecting the aviation development in the high plains during the early 1970s. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Spring Creek, which cuts diagonally across the eastern half of the survey area. Transport and logistics are central to the region's character, evidenced by the Burlington Northern railroad line running parallel to the southern boundary and the presence of the Smith Landing Strip (East) further east. The map identifies numerous locations of a Well, indicating the critical role of groundwater management for this agricultural stretch of Nebraska. This survey captures a moment when traditional rail transport and emerging aviation infrastructure coexisted to support the local economy.
