A gray-toned satellite map shows a broad area that is clearly partly forested and mountainous and partly urbanized (some modern roads and large urban areas are visible). At lower right a blue-and-orange symbol indicates the location of Ballicaoluk. At middle left, bordering a body of water that widens and clearly continues off the map to the west, is the label "Izmir". Other readable labels, in clockwise order, are: Karşıaka, Bornova, Buca, Zafermah, Belenbaşı, and Gaziemir. At lower left, there is a scale bar labeled "5 km", which permits the viewer to estimate that the map covers an area measuring approximately 35 kilometers by 35 kilometers.

A square, gray-toned satellite map that -- thanks to a scale bar labeled "10km" -- can be seen to cover an approximately 70 by 70 kilometer area. The terrain is mountainous, and a portion of a large river snakes across the map from middle right to center bottom. Labels for "Sinicik" (upper middle) and Kâhta (near center) can be read. A bright blue line starts near the upper left portion of the map and runs eastward to near the middle before turning south-southeastward to eventually end in the large river at lower right. Partway along this clue line a large orange dot and smaller green bow-tie symbol can be seen, but they are not labeled.

A gray-toned satellite image map shows a slightly curved modern street crossing the image at vertical middle. To the south of the street, modern buildings and gardens are visible. A few of these are also visible to the northwest, but otherwise, the upper half of the map is clear of modern structures, but remains of ancient structures are visible among a few trees. An orange dot surrounded by an irregular blue polygon highlights some of these. A larger rectangular area of remains can be seen to the north of these symbols.
