2010 Map of West Brownsville OE W

About this map

The Rio Grande snakes through the far northeastern corner of this coastal plain study, marking the international boundary between the United States of America and Estados Unidos Mexicanos. This 2010 survey focuses on the open, low-lying borderlands west of Brownsville, where the landscape is defined more by its geopolitical significance and the winding course of the river than by dense settlement. The map serves as a clear record of the river's channel and the immediate riparian zone at the turn of the decade, providing a high-resolution look at this specific stretch of the international frontier before further landscape modifications.
