1975 Map of Selma SW

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Alabama River winds through the southeastern corner of this Dallas County landscape, carving a deep horseshoe bend that dominates the local topography. This 1975 orthophoto reveals a complex mosaic of land use, where heavily forested tracts alternate with cleared agricultural fields. The intricate drainage patterns and varying vegetation densities visible in the aerial imagery provide a clear look at the rural character of the region during the mid-1970s. Because this is an orthophotomap rather than a traditional line-and-symbol survey, it offers researchers a literal view of the ground cover and farmstead layouts near the river banks, preserving the exact state of the Alabama bottomlands at a specific moment in time.
