How to Use This Galveston, Indiana Map

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

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.

Galveston anchors the flat, fertile expanse of the Indiana plains, where the horizon stretches wide beneath a sky that seems to press closer to the earth at dusk. It lies 7.1 miles north-northwest of Kokomo, IN (from Kokomo, IN: bearing 335°T), and is situated 5.9 miles south-southwest of Grissom AFB. South Fork Deer Creek cuts a quiet, meandering path through the landscape, its banks lined with the tangled roots of sycamores that drink deeply from the heavy, dark soil. To the north, the distant outline of The Hogback provides a jagged, blue-tinted contrast to the otherwise leveled geometry of the surrounding fields. The air here holds the scent of turned loam and drying corn husks, a seasonal rhythm that dictates the pace of life as shadows lengthen across the gravel roads and woodlots.

Galveston maintains a steady, industrious character, its history rooted in the iron rails and grain elevators that once signaled the prosperity of the agricultural trade. While the nearby Frances Slocum State Forest offers a dense, temperate reprieve of timber and leaf, the local economy remains tethered to the vast, grid-patterned agriculture that defines the region. Residents often look toward Houston Park for recreation, finding a communal stillness in the open green space that persists despite the changing demands of the modern era. Even with the Kokomo Waterworks Reservoir Number Two holding its steady, artificial depth ten miles away, Galveston continues to find its purpose in the reliable yield of the harvest and the enduring connection of its neighbors to the land.

About This Galveston Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Galveston, Indiana. Coordinates: 40.578928, -86.190272. 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 Galveston includes the ZIP code (46932), telephone area code (574), county seat of Cass County (Logansport), and school district assignment (Lewis Cass Schools).

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.
