Explore Yatesville, 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 Yatesville, 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 Yatesville.
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.

Yatesville occupies a quiet expanse of the Georgia piedmont where the earth turns to a deep, iron-rich red clay that clings to the boots of anyone who walks the furrowed fields. It lies 24.1 miles south-southeast of Griffin, GA (from Griffin, GA: bearing 163°T), and is situated 9.8 miles south of Barnesville. Israel Creek carves a persistent, winding path through the landscape, its waters moving with a deliberate, low-slung gravity that shapes the immediate terrain. To the west, the land gathers itself into the subtle rise of Davis Hill, a landmark that anchors the horizon under a sky that seems to hold the heat of the afternoon long after the sun has begun its descent. The air here feels heavy with the scent of damp soil and the lingering musk of longleaf pine, creating a stillness that settles over the open plains like a soft, woolen blanket. Four miles away, White Lake offers a mirror to the clouds, its surface often undisturbed as the light shifts from the sharp clarity of midday to a bruised, violet dusk.
Yatesville emerged from the agricultural ambitions of the nineteenth century, built upon a foundation of timber and the seasonal rhythms of the harvest. While the local economy has transitioned away from the singular focus of its early years, the legacy of the land persists in the small-scale commerce and the enduring patience of those who remain. Education remains a focal point for the surrounding district, with resources like Upson County Schools serving as a primary link for the youth of the region. Life in Yatesville proceeds with a steady, unadorned cadence, far removed from the frantic pace of the larger metropolitan centers to the north. Beyond the immediate settlement, the terrain slopes gently toward the basin of Mulberry Level, a reminder of the ancient, slow-moving geological forces that defined this interior space long before the first fence lines were drawn.

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.
