Explore Summerville, Georgia, 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 Summerville, Georgia. 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 Georgia 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 Summerville.
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.

Summerville emerges from the landscape as a quiet assembly of brick and timber, held firmly within the embrace of the inland Georgia piedmont. It lies 2.5 miles west of Augusta, GA (from Augusta, GA: bearing 275°T), and is situated 7.7 miles east-southeast of Evans. The earth here is a deep, iron-rich red, a stubborn clay that clings to the roots of longleaf pine and dictates the color of every dust cloud kicked up by a passing truck. Light catches the edges of Hickman Park, where the air hangs heavy and still, filtered through the thick, emerald tang of kudzu that claims the fence lines. Six miles to the northwest, the silhouette of Poverty Hill breaks the horizon, a grounding presence that watches over the low-lying terrain as the sun dips low, casting long, bruised shadows across the fields.
Summerville keeps a measured pace, defined by the steady currents of history that have shaped its industry and its architecture. Life here often gravitates toward the proximity of Raes Creek, a waterway that has served as a silent witness to the generations who built their livelihoods on the soil and the nearby textile mills. Only a mile away, the surface of Lake Olmstead reflects the changing seasons, providing a singular, mirror-like clarity that contrasts with the bustling, pragmatic work of the downtown district. The local economy persists as a blend of tradition and transition, where the scent of pecan groves occasionally drifts into the center of the square, reminding those who walk these streets of the slow, deliberate work required to cultivate such a landscape.

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.
