Thanks. I would question whether there were ever “boots on the ground” for most of the mapping.

Thanks for the link to the Mosquito Preserve Inventory.

I may be buying some land within 500 mi of there and don't want to get into a similar situation.

"Federal, State and local regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over wetlands may define and describe wetlands in a different manner than that used in this inventory.

There is no attempt, in either the design or products of this inventory, to define limits of proprietary jurisdiction of any Federal, State, or local government or to establish the geographical scope of regulatory programs of government agencies.

Persons intending to engage in activities involving modifications within or adjacent to wetland areas should seek the advice of appropriate Federal, State, or local agencies concerning specific agency regulatory programs and proprietary jurisdictions that may affect such activities."

Caveat Emptor.
