Explore Dubois, 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 Dubois, 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 Dubois.
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.

Dubois occupies a landscape defined by the persistent, quiet passage of the Patoka River, which carves a deliberate path through the earth less than a mile from the center of the settlement. It lies 7.8 miles east-northeast of Jasper, IN (from Jasper, IN: bearing 61°T), and is situated 13.0 miles northeast of Huntingburg. The horizon here is marked by the modest rise of the Harbison Hills, their slopes providing a backdrop of muted greens and browns that shift in tone as the afternoon sun retreats. Five miles to the south, the expansive surface of Patoka Lake catches the sky, acting as a cooling lens for the humid, inland air that settles over the surrounding fields. The ground itself is a complex mosaic of woodlots and cleared farmland, where the soil holds the damp, heavy scent of midwestern earth, particularly after the frequent rains that swell the local creeks and keep the vegetation a deep, resilient emerald.
Historical accounts of the region speak to a culture forged by steady, industrial labor and the disciplined rhythms of agriculture that have long defined the Dubois economy. The local character is colored by a heritage of craftsmanship, where the legacy of woodworking and manufacturing remains visible in the sturdy, brick-fronted buildings that anchor the main streets. Residents often look toward the nearby Patoka Lake for recreation, a contrast to the disciplined pace of the workweek that keeps the local economy centered on production and the land. While the modern world moves with frantic noise, Dubois maintains a sense of deliberate stillness, a place where the evening light lingering over the timbered ridges feels like a private, quiet possession of those who live there.

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.
