Explore Chesterfield, 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 Chesterfield, 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 Chesterfield.
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.

Chesterfield emerges from a landscape defined by the steady, modest flow of the Chesterfield Branch as it carves a path through the flat, fertile plains of the Midwest. It lies 4.4 miles east of Anderson, IN (from Anderson, IN: bearing 84°T), and is situated 6.9 miles southwest of Yorktown. The horizon here is vast and unencumbered, allowing the golden light of late afternoon to stretch across the woodlot mosaic and open fields until the shadows of the trees grow long and thin. Within the quiet boundaries of Makepeace Park, the earth retains a damp, rich scent, and the air carries a crispness that suggests the distance from any coast is absolute. The terrain remains level and unassuming, favoring a calm, horizontal beauty that finds its voice in the way the wind moves through the tall grasses.
Chesterfield maintains a character forged by the disciplined labor of earlier generations who first organized the land around the rhythms of the seasons. While industry and local commerce have shifted over time, the economy remains tethered to the steady pulse of a region that values utility and quiet persistence. The people of Chesterfield go about their days with a measured pace, often turning their attention toward the quiet recreation provided by the local landscape or traveling the twelve miles to the shores of Emerald Lake for a change of scenery. Life here is defined by the absence of pretense, where the brick foundations of the past provide a sturdy, dependable backdrop for the steady, everyday progress of the present.

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.
