About this map

Osteen and the suburban edges of Deltona dominate this northern Florida landscape, where the transition from residential development to the wetlands of the St. Johns River is clearly defined. The mapping reveals a mix of established aviation and small communities, from the sprawling Orlando Sanford International Airport in the southwest to the quiet residential pockets of Midway, Canaan, and Indian Mound Village. Local history is anchored by sites like the Garfield Settlement Cem and the former rail corridors now preserved as the East Central Regional Rail Trail.

The hydrography of the St. Johns River system is the central geographical feature, encompassing complex waterways like Brickyard Slough, Mullet Lake, and Lake Bethel. Numerous landings and bridges, including the Osteen Bridge and Geneva Bridge, provide the necessary crossings through the marshy terrain. Smaller settlements and points of interest such as Beck Hammock, Geigers Landing, and the curiously named Naked Place illustrate the diverse and localized nomenclature of the river's edge.
