This image depicts a hand-drawn architectural or landscape plan with contour lines. The contour lines represent different elevations on a plot of land and mimic the topography of the area. Each line is marked with an elevation number, indicating a consistent change in height between the lines.

The words "WINTER" and "WATER" are noted towards the top edge of the drawing, which might relate to seasonal water flow or patterns affecting the landscape. Similar annotations are seen on the other edges, like "JT," "R.C.," and "DOOF," but their full significance is unclear without further context.

There is also text at the bottom left corner of the image that reads:

"PLAN SHOWING CONTOURS
IN FRAMINGHAM
FOR
VIRGIL ABELE

Scale 1"=40'
JULY 1940
CLELAND/TERRY
Surveyor"

This indicates that the map was created for someone named Virgil Abele, at a scale of 1 inch equaling 40 feet, by Cleland/Terry, who is the surveyor, and the plan was drawn in July 1940. The location is Framingham, which might refer to Framingham, Massachusetts, or another location with the same name.

This image is a hand-drawn contour map that provides topographical details of a plot of land in Framingham. It is dated July 1940 and was created by a surveyor named G. Langtry. The scale of the map is 1 inch equals 20 feet.

Details visible in the map include:

  • Contour lines, which indicate elevation changes across the plot. These lines are labeled with elevation values ranging from approximately 74 to 100 feet.
  • Specific markers and points of elevation (e.g., points marked with "97.4", "84.8", "76", "92.8", and similar)
  • Streets adjacent to the plot of land, namely Winter Street, and other indicated boundaries such as "MDC" and "Davis."
  • Notations of certain landmarks like trees (depicted with symbols and labeled) within the plot.
  • Compass directions indicating north.

The drawing is likely a surveyor's representation used for engineering, construction, or land use planning purposes.

Here's a description of the image based on the information provided:

The image is a black and white surveyor's map or plan. It shows contour lines in Framingham for Virgil Abele, as indicated by the text at the bottom. The scale is 1 inch to 20 feet, and the date is July 1990.

The map displays various contour lines labeled with elevations (e.g., 84, 86, 88, 90, 92, 94, 96, 98). These lines indicate the topography of the land. There are also some scattered symbols, potentially representing trees or vegetation.

The map includes labels for "Winter St" and "Dorr" (presumably street names or property lines). Additionally, various survey measurements and notations are present, such as distances and bearings (e.g., "N 89°-45'-47" W 250.11," "S 11°-31'-15E 100.0"). "MDC" is also written on the map, likely representing a property line or boundary.

The image is a hand-drawn survey plan showing contour lines in Framingham for Virgil Abele, created in July 1940 by Gelangtry, Surveyor. The plan includes several notations and details:

  • Contour Lines: The core of the image is the network of contour lines. These are drawn to map the elevation changes across the surveyed area. Each line represents a specific elevation, with numbers indicating the height at various points (e.g., 82, 84, 86, etc.).
  • Property Boundaries: The perimeter of the plan appears to outline the property's boundaries. The lines are generally straight and have measurements, angles, and cardinal direction indications (e.g., "N 89°-43'-47" W").
  • Street Names: Two street names are visible, "WINTER" and "ST," suggesting they might be adjacent to the surveyed land.
  • Points of Interest: There are some marked points with circles or symbols and numbers such as "+95.5" or "+959." These probably refer to features like trees or objects on the land.
  • Measurements and Bearings: The drawing has annotations indicating distances (e.g., 100.0), angles (e.g., "S 8° 15' -15" E"), and bearings (e.g., "MDC." followed by measurements). These are crucial for the survey work.
  • North Arrow: There is a small north arrow at the bottom left, indicating the direction of north on the map.
  • Scale: The drawing states that the scale is "1"=20 feet". This is important for determining true distances.

Qwen

Created by Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct on 2025-07-21

This image appears to be a topographic map, specifically a contour map, which is a type of elevation map that uses contour lines to represent the shape of the land. The map is titled "PLAN SHOWING CONTOURS IN FRAMINGHAM FOR VIRGIL ABELE." The map is dated July 1940 and is marked as a survey by GELANGTRY.

The contour lines are drawn to indicate different elevation levels on the land. The numbers on the lines represent the elevation in feet, increasing as you move higher up the lines. The map includes a scale of 1" = 20', which means that 1 inch on the map represents 20 feet in real life.

The map also includes a north arrow, which helps in orienting the map correctly. The title "WINTER" at the top of the map suggests that this might be a winter contour map, possibly used for agricultural or land management purposes. The map appears to be hand-drawn, with some handwritten annotations and notations, which were common practices before GIS and digital mapping were widely used.
