How to Use This Austin, Indiana Map

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

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.

Austin occupies a flat, expansive stretch of the Indiana plains where the horizon pulls the sky low over broad fields and clusters of hardwood timber. It lies 14.6 miles south-southeast of Seymour, IN (from Seymour, IN: bearing 162°T), and is situated 5.4 miles north-northwest of Scottsburg. The Muscatatuck River winds its way through the landscape just a mile from the center, its quiet current carving through the silt and clay that define this inland terrain. Beyond the immediate grid of the streets, the earth rises toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Walnut Ridge, while the darker, denser canopy of the Jackson-Washington State Forest marks the wilder reaches of the horizon. In the late afternoon, the light here takes on a pale, amber quality, catching the dust of the roads and illuminating the transition from the manicured lawns of Manaugh Park to the overgrown fringes of Buzz Gully.

Austin grew from the rhythm of the rail and the steady pulse of regional industry, functioning for generations as a hinge between the agricultural traditions of the soil and the demands of modern manufacturing. The economy maintains a grounded character, shaped by the ebb and flow of production lines that have long defined the daily lives of those who live here. Residents often look toward the nearby waters of Marshall King Lake for a moment of stillness, finding a reprieve from the persistent hum of the local work cycle. The collective memory of the place is held in the modest architecture and the steady, unadorned pace of life, where the change of seasons across the surrounding woodlots remains the most reliable measure of time.

About This Austin Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Austin, Indiana. Coordinates: 38.741693, -85.811696. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Austin includes the ZIP code (47102), telephone area code (317), county seat of Scott County (Scottsburg), and school district assignment (Scott County School District 1).

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.
