Agricultural water management and straight-line infrastructure define this portion of the Everglades in Palm Beach County. The landscape is dominated by the intersecting geometries of the Bolles Canal and the Miami Canal, critical arteries for drainage and irrigation that have reshaped the region's hydrology. These waterways are mirrored by their respective service routes, Bolles Canal Rd and Miami Canal Rd, which provide access through the vast grid-patterned fields. Tucked into the eastern edge of the survey is the Okeelanta Airport, a small facility that serves the industrial and agricultural needs of the surrounding area, reflecting the era's reliance on aviation for crop management and transport in this reclaimed terrain.
