DescriptionThis image depicts an aerial shot of various buildings on the Sandia Base in Albuquerque, New Mexico. This whole area has been separated into sections by a dirt road that runs down the center of the frame and in between the sections. A row of four barrack-like structures and two smaller square buildings can be seen on the right side of the frame. In the section just above these are several other buildings. Of these buildings, the building on the left has three large garage doors. The section on the top left side of the frame has two more barrack-like buildings side by side running parallel to the road in between the sections. In the bottom left section is five rows of unidentified dark colored vehicles. The upper portions of the frame are taken up by a large plot of empty land and two light colored buildings.
