Island-scale hydrographic baseline for Whiskey Island: NHD water and flowlines, NWI wetland polygons, and separately symbolized EGLE hydric-soil boundaries.
Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked
A map plate shows a pale, roughly triangular landmass surrounded by blue water, with darker blue water areas and narrow linear features. Green and yellow-green polygons mark wetland and soil-related areas, and a legend appears in the upper left. A horizontal scale bar runs 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.

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 titled “Whiskey Island water systems and wetlands,” depicting NHD water and flowlines, NWI wetland polygons, and EGLE hydric-soil boundaries. It was drawn from archive data in EPSG:3078, with source data attributed to OpenStreetMap contributors, the USGS National Hydrography Dataset, the USFWS National Wetlands Inventory, Michigan EGLE hydric soils, and USGS 3DEP.
Could not make out
Stated rather than guessed at.
