About this map

White Sands Missile Range dominates the landscape of this 1982 orthophotomap, where the arid terrain of southern New Mexico is captured through a combination of aerial photography and topographic data. The map reveals the functional infrastructure of this restricted military zone, featuring a Landing Strip, various trails, and isolated designated areas such as Don Site and Lass Site. Water management is critical in this desert environment, evidenced by the presence of Burch Tank, Douzette Tank, and the Thompson Reservoir, which provide rare points of relief across the basin. The inclusion of a Radio Tower and specific landmarks like Tom and G Site points to the specialized communications and testing activity characteristic of the region's mid-to-late 20th-century history.
