How to Use This Burnett, Indiana Map

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

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.

Burnett emerges from the flat, industrious stretch of the Indiana landscape where the horizon is defined by the steady work of the soil and the quiet persistence of the horizon. It lies 6.8 miles east of Harrison, IN (from Harrison, IN: bearing 82°T), and is situated 8.2 miles northeast of Terre Haute. The North Branch Otter Creek cuts a rhythmic path through the earth nearby, its waters moving with a deliberate, low-slung energy that mirrors the temperament of the surrounding fields. To the west, the silhouettes of Indian Ridge provide a jagged, distant boundary, while the greenery of Lost Creek Community Grove offers a muted sanctuary for those seeking a respite from the open expanse. On summer afternoons, the light catches the surface of the Forest Park Swimming Pool, casting a sharp, metallic shimmer that anchors the local atmosphere in the heat of the day.

Economic life in Burnett has long been tethered to the rhythm of extraction and labor, reflecting a history shaped by the coal seams that once defined the region’s subterranean wealth. The landscape bears the subtle signatures of this past, where woodlots and agricultural plots now soften the edges of old industrial sites, slowly reclaiming the ground for the quietude of the present. Life here moves with a grounded, unpretentious pace, characterized by the sight of sturdy brick structures and the simple, functional architecture of a place built for utility rather than spectacle. Residents recognize the value in this steady endurance, finding a particular beauty in the way the gray Indiana sky settles over the fields at dusk, signaling the end of another day of consistent, honest work.

About This Burnett Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Burnett, Indiana. Coordinates: 39.542816, -87.295573. 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 Burnett includes the ZIP code (47805), telephone area code (765), county seat of Vigo County (Terre Haute), and school district assignment (Vigo County School Corporation).

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.
