The map shows the developments which took place in the coastal town of Youngsille between 1980 and 2005.
In 1980, The town was a much greener residential area with a large number of trees and individual houses, but during the next 25 years, the town experienced a number of dramatic changes.
The most noticeable is that all of the trees south of the River Alana were cut down, , with all the houses along the railway line being with factories and warehouses sprang up around the airport and school. Only a few trees north of the river remained. The woodland was cleared to make way for a park, a golf course, and car parking facilities. Further developments were the construction of a stadium near the north-east corner of the lake and a new stretch of the railway from the river running directly north. A marina was also built at the mouth of the river.
Overall, a comparison of the two maps reveals a change from a largely rural to a mainly urban landscape.
