Featured in this photograph are a large section of metropolitan Dallas; most of the eastern half of Fort Worth; and the connecting land corridor between these two dynamic north Texas cities, including Irving, Grand Prairie, and Arlington, where phenomenal growth has occurred during the last half of the 20th century. The runways of Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport are visible slightly north of center, and Dallas Love Field appears northwest of the central business district of Dallas. Viewing from north to south are several large reservoirs--Garza Little Elm Reservoir (southern end and dam), Grapevine Lake, North Lake (smaller, darker lake northeast of Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport), Mountain Creek Lake, and Joe Pool Lake. Visible are the general drainage features through the urban area and many highways, roads, and streets creating a checkerboard pattern.
In this partial view of Dallas and Ft. Worth, Texas, USA (33.0N, 97.0W) the detail is good enough to use as a road map of the major highways throughout the area. The new Dallas/Ft. Worth International Airport is near the center of the scene. Almost twenty lakes and reservoirs in the area, reflecting the recent heavy spring rainfall, by their high water levels, are easily delineated in the view.
