White Sands Missile Range dominates this 2010 topographic record of the Tularosa Valley in Otero County. The landscape is defined by its military infrastructure, exhibiting a specialized network of primary and secondary transit routes such as WSMR P Route 2 and WSMR P Route 15. These roads serve the high-tech testing grounds and facilities characteristic of the region's mid-century defense expansion. Unlike typical residential maps, the development here follows a strict functional grid and arterial system, including WSMR S Route 257 and WSMR S Route 3570, which connect various remote test sites and administrative centers across the desert floor. This specialized layout provides a technical perspective on the spatial organization of New Mexico's defense sector as it existed in the early 21st century.
