How to Use This Roland, Arkansas Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Roland, 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 Roland.

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.

Roland emerges from the dense, verdant canopy of the Arkansas interior, defined by the steady, persistent presence of Mill Bayou as it carves a path through the humid woodland. It lies 5.8 miles west-northwest of Maumelle, AR (from Maumelle, AR: bearing 294°T), and is situated 5.6 miles southwest of Mayflower. The landscape surrounding Roland is characterized by the rugged, uneven topography of the region, where the earth pushes upward toward the silhouette of Moss Mountain, visible as a dark, jagged spine against the horizon. To the east, the stillness of Lake Maumelle anchors the environment, its reflective surface catching the heavy, golden light that settles over the basin at dusk. The air here holds a distinct weight, thick with the scent of damp pine needles and the cooling vapor rising from the creek bed, creating a stillness that seems to suspend the passage of time.

History in Roland remains etched in the quiet transition from early agricultural roots to a modern, rural identity that favors privacy and the slow cadence of the seasons. Local life revolves around the land, though the proximity to the Murray Pool Recreation Area provides a space for residents to engage with the natural terrain that defines their daily surroundings. While distant from the bustle of urban centers, the people of Roland maintain a connection to the geography through the maintenance of paths like the Bufflehead Bay Trail, which winds through the thickets and hollows of the landscape. Beyond the reaches of Ross Hollow, the economy remains modest and grounded, relying on a blend of land stewardship and the quiet industry of those who have long called this verdant, hilly expanse their own.
