Explore Andersonville, Indiana, 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 Andersonville, Indiana. 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 Indiana 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 Andersonville.
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.

Andersonville occupies a quiet intersection of the Indiana landscape, where the horizon is defined by the steady, measured geometry of cornfields and woodlots. It lies 6.0 miles south of Orange, IN (from Orange, IN: bearing 175°T), and is situated 7.0 miles southwest of Columbia. The terrain here holds a stillness that seems to gather in the low-lying spaces, particularly toward the nearby Halls Hollow, where the air cools and thickens as the sun dips below the western edge of the fields. A mile away, the South Fork Little Salt Creek traces a shallow, winding path through the silt, its movement barely audible against the backdrop of the rustling stalks and the distant, hazy silhouette of McGuire Ridge. The light at dusk has a way of catching the limestone dust on the backroads, turning the gray gravel into a soft, glowing ribbon that leads toward the calm, reflective surface of Woodland Retreat Lake.
Andersonville preserves the quiet persistence of a place shaped by the slow accumulation of agricultural cycles and the deliberate pace of rural life. While the local economy remains tethered to the productivity of the surrounding soil, the history of the area is etched into the sturdy, unadorned buildings that anchor the center of the grid. Residents look toward the seasonal rhythms of the harvest rather than the frantic pulse of larger hubs, finding a distinct, solitary beauty in the way the frost settles over the fields in late autumn. Life in Andersonville moves with an internal gravity, indifferent to the noise of the outside world, focusing instead on the maintenance of homesteads and the long, quiet afternoons that define the passage of the year.

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.
