How to Use This Shiloh, Alabama Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Shiloh, Alabama. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Alabama or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Shiloh.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Shiloh emerges from the dense, humid embrace of the Alabama interior, where the land yields to a quiet geography of red-clay veins and encroaching hardwoods. It lies 46.0 miles west-southwest of Selma, AL (from Selma, AL: bearing 245°T), and is situated 14.8 miles north of Thomasville. Sweetwater Creek carves a deliberate path through the landscape, its sluggish, dark waters providing a persistent rhythm to the low-lying terrain. Beyond the immediate canopy, the silhouette of Chatman Ridge asserts itself against the distant horizon, a blurred charcoal spine that anchors the expansive, sun-drenched sky. On humid afternoons, the air grows heavy and thick with the scent of damp earth, clinging to the longleaf pines that stand as silent sentinels over the fields. Those seeking a reprieve from the quietude of the woods might look toward Marengo Lake, a modest shimmer of blue six miles distant, or travel further to the Thomasville Community Playground for a more structured connection to the outdoors.

Shiloh carries the weight of a slow-turning history, where the economy remains tethered to the patient cycles of peach and pecan harvests. The local character is defined by the endurance of those who work the soil, a lineage of labor that predates the modern era and persists in the weathered facades of the surrounding countryside. Progress here is measured not in rapid shifts, but in the steady accumulation of seasonal change and the preservation of long-held rural customs. While the pace of life remains tethered to the soil, the memory of past struggles lingers in the quietude of the back roads, lending a contemplative gravity to the atmosphere. Shiloh functions as a place where the stillness is not an absence of activity, but a deliberate choice, reflecting a community that prefers the shade of an oak to the noise of passing industry.

Detailed location data for Shiloh includes the ZIP code (36736, 36276, 36010), telephone area code (334, 251, 205), county seat of Marengo County (Linden), and school district assignment (DeKalb County School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
