Garden Island soils, wetlands, and terrain

Map: Garden Island soils, wetlands, and terrain.

Island-scale environmental baseline for Garden Island: SSURGO map units, NWI and EGLE hydric-soil context, hydrography, and 3DEP terrain.

Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A colored map shows an irregular landmass surrounded by pale blue water, with shaded terrain bands, multicolored soil-unit polygons, wetland outlines, waterways, latitude and longitude lines, and a scale bar. A legend in the upper left identifies mapped soil contexts and boundary types. The title and subtitle appear above the map, with small source and data notes along the bottom.

A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

Taken from the record

Not observed in the image — supplied by the archive's own catalogue, and repeated here so the two stay distinguishable.

Catalogue record identifies this as an atlas plate in the Environmental Atlas, drawn from archive data using SSURGO soils, the National Wetlands Inventory, Michigan EGLE hydric-soil data, USGS 3DEP terrain, the National Hydrography Dataset, and OpenStreetMap. The drawing is credited to Beaver Island Archive and the listed data providers; the record gives a CC BY 4.0 license for the drawing and dimensions of 3600 × 3449 pixels.

Could not make out

Stated rather than guessed at.

Very small source and disclaimer text along the bottom is not fully legible.
