2012 Map of Taylor Slough

About this map

Taylor Slough dominates this landscape in southern Miami-Dade County, where the intricate network of the Everglades drainage system is meticulously documented. The vast wetlands are characterized by the seasonal flow patterns that define this subtropical ecosystem. Cutting across the northern reach of the survey is the Ingraham Hwy, a critical roadway that has historically provided access through these freshwater marshes and prairies. The map depicts the unique hydrology of the area, illustrating how water moves through the slough toward the coast, a pattern essential for those studying the environmental history and preservation efforts in the region during the early 21st century.
