2018 Map of South of Okeelanta

About this map

The Everglades dominate this 2018 survey of Palm Beach County, showing the intricate relationship between the natural wetlands and the managed agricultural landscape of South Florida. The vast expanse is bisected by the North New River Canal, a vital piece of the region's historical water management infrastructure that runs diagonally through the northeastern corner. The map reflects a highly structured terrain, where the wild character of the glades meets the rigid grid of the Public Land Survey System, as seen in the boundaries for T46s R36e, T46s R37e, and T47s R37e. This modern document records the contemporary state of the Southern Everglades, serving as a baseline for understanding how twentieth-century drainage and land-use policies have shaped this specific quadrant of the Florida peninsula.
