Protected and public land across the archipelago with the trail and track network drawn over it.
Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked
A printed thematic map shows several outlined land areas on a gray background. Green shading marks public or protected land, while thin colored lines show trails and roads; small symbols identify cemeteries. A legend appears at lower left, with source text along the bottom edge.
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.
