About this map

Wallops Island serves as a critical junction of aerospace technology and coastal wilderness on Virginia's Eastern Shore. This survey captures the facility during a period of transition, with the Wallops Flight Center (NASA) footprint featuring a dense concentration of technical infrastructure along the shoreline, including a Weather Station, numerous Launch Pads, and a Lookout Tower. These facilities are situated between the marshy waters of Bogues Bay and the Atlantic surf at Wallops Beach.
