Oceanside is the focal point of this coastal survey, where the urban grid meets the Pacific shoreline at the southern edge of the Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton area. The map illustrates a landscape shaped by military activity and coastal geography, featuring the Del Mar Boat Basin and the confluence of the Santa Margarita River and San Luis Rey River as they reach the sea. To the north, the terrain transitions into the high ground of Stuart Mesa and the drainage of Newton Canyon. The transportation network is defined by major corridors such as Vandergrift Blvd and Stuart Mesa Rd, which facilitate movement between the downtown district and the adjacent military installations. This record captures the modern infrastructure of the city, including the grid surrounding Mission Ave and the proximity of residential developments to Oceanside City Beach.
