About this map

The Neosho River meanders through this southeast Kansas landscape, serving as a focal point for the established towns of Oswego and Chetopa. Following the industrial demands of the mid-20th century, the landscape is marked by the expansive Kansas Ordnance Plant Area in the northwest and numerous Strip Mines scattered south of Oswego. These features indicate a transition from purely agricultural pursuits toward heavy industry and resource extraction.
