Explore Groveland, 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 Groveland, 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 Groveland.
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.

Groveland emerges from the flat, fertile expanse of the Indiana plains where the horizon stretches thin and pale against the sky. It lies 7.2 miles northeast of Putnam, IN (from Putnam, IN: bearing 48°T), and is situated 2.3 miles north-northwest of Heritage Lake. Plum Creek bisects the landscape, its sluggish current carving a modest path through the silt and heavy clay that defines the local topography. To the west, the distant silhouette of Devils Backbone rises like a splintered tooth against the clouds, a jagged reminder of the shifting earth that lies far beyond these quiet fields. The air here holds the scent of damp soil and drying corn, a persistent, earthy perfume that anchors Groveland to the slow respiration of the Midwest. A mile away, the surface of Heritage Lake catches the afternoon light, turning the water into a sheet of hammered pewter that mirrors the occasional flight of a hawk circling above the woodlots.
Agriculture persists as the primary pulse of the local economy, with the rhythm of the harvest dictating the quiet urgency of daily life. Groveland maintains a modest scale, where the infrastructure of gravel roads and silos serves as a functional architecture for a regional identity built on persistence rather than growth. Residents often find their way to Lincoln Park, a space where the manicured grass offers a reprieve from the relentless geometry of the surrounding farmland. The history of the area is not written in grand monuments, but in the maintenance of fences and the steady persistence of family-run enterprises that weather the changing seasons. Even as the modern world encroaches, Groveland retains a stillness that feels like a deliberate choice, a place where time is measured not by clocks, but by the gradual lengthening of shadows across the fields.

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.
