Explore Ivan, Arkansas, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Ivan, Arkansas. 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 Arkansas 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 Ivan.
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.

Ivan emerges from the flat, heavy clay of the lowlands, where Guice Creek carves a persistent, muddy path through the dense thickets of pine and scrub oak. It lies 32.6 miles southwest of Pine Bluff, AR (from Pine Bluff, AR: bearing 228°T), and is situated 6.8 miles north of Fordyce. The light here clings to the earth at dusk, thickening into a humid, golden amber that turns the shadows of the hardwood stands into long, bruised fingers reaching across the fields. Four miles away, the surface of Kervin Lake Number One remains undisturbed, a mirror for the heat-hazed sky that seems to hold the silence of the surrounding woods in its dark, still center. The air carries the scent of damp loam and pine resin, a fragrance that defines the slow, patient reclamation of the landscape by the creeping vines and tangled brush.
Ivan retains a quiet, agrarian pulse, shaped by the cyclical demands of the soil and the modest industry of the timber tracts that define the local economy. A mile away, Wayside Park offers a brief respite of manicured green, a small coordinate of order against the sprawling, unkempt vitality of the brush. Life in Ivan moves with the deliberate tempo of a place where the seasons dictate the labor, and the history of the families here is written in the maintenance of fences and the steady, rhythmic clearing of the land. There is a singular beauty in the way the morning mist clings to the banks of Guice Creek, obscuring the horizon until the sun burns through, revealing a world that asks for little and offers the quiet endurance of the Arkansas plains in return.

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.
