About this map

Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield anchors the northwestern portion of this study, preserving the terrain of Kennesaw Mountain, Little Kennesaw Mountain, and Pigeon Hill. The suburban landscape of Marietta, Fair Oaks, and Smyrna is defined by a dense grid of residential growth and education centers, including the Southern Tech Institute and Chiropractic College. The map captures a heavy military and industrial presence in the east, dominated by the massive runways and infrastructure of Dobbins Air Force Base and the Atlanta Naval Air Station.

Cultural history is visible through numerous sites of local and regional significance, such as the Confederate Cem and City Cem near the downtown core. The transportation network is centered on the CSX Transportation line and major arteries like Powder Springs Road and Austell Road. Small communities and neighborhoods like Elizabeth, Blackwells, and Birchwood are mapped in detail alongside numerous local churches like Big Bethel Ch and New Salem Ch.
