South Fox Island vegetation and land-cover context

Map: South Fox Island vegetation and land-cover context.

Annual NLCD 2025 grouped land-cover context at 30 m for South Fox Island; not an MNFI natural-community map.

Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A vertically oriented color map shows an elongated, tapered landform surrounded by pale blue water. Most of the interior is green, with tan coastal bands, scattered small patches of other colors, and a concentrated pink area near the lower right. A legend is at the upper left, a scale bar is at the lower left, and faint grid lines cross the map.

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.

The catalogue identifies this as an atlas plate in the Ecology Atlas, based on annual NLCD 2025 grouped land-cover data at 30 m. The record states that it is not an MNFI natural-community map and credits OpenStreetMap, USGS MRLC Annual NLCD, and USGS 3DEP data.

Could not make out

Stated rather than guessed at.

Most legend entries, map labels, coordinate annotations, and scale-bar labels are too small to transcribe confidently.
