Summary
A notional (schematic/diagrammatic) map produced by AARO to document the geographic context of the Western United States Event encounters. The "notional" designation indicates the map uses generalized or anonymized geography to protect classified facility locations while still communicating the spatial relationship between observation sites, approach vectors, and relevant terrain features.
Significance
Provides the spatial intelligence framework for the Western United States Event case cluster. Notional maps are standard practice in classified incident documentation when the specific facility must remain anonymous but geographic relationships are relevant to understanding the phenomenon.
