Explore Nabb, 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 Nabb, 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 Nabb.
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.

Nabb marks a quiet intersection where the limestone-heavy earth of southern Indiana meets the persistent, slow-moving pulse of Kimberlin Creek. It lies 11.3 miles north-northwest of Owen, IN (from Owen, IN: bearing 334°T), and is situated 9.3 miles southeast of Scottsburg. The landscape around Nabb unfolds in a mosaic of woodlots and open fields, where the quality of the afternoon light often turns the dry stalks of late-season corn into a pale, burnished bronze. To the west, the distant, hazy silhouette of Rodgers Ridge anchors the horizon, while the terrain closer at hand slopes gently toward the damp, shaded banks of the creek. Only two miles distant, the still waters of Marysville Lake mirror the expansive, high-vaulted sky of the interior plains, providing a silent, reflective counterpoint to the working soil of the surrounding acreage.
Agriculture remains the primary language of the land, as Nabb persists as a place defined by the steady, seasonal labor of farmers who manage the heavy, fertile clay. History here is kept in the weathered siding of older barns and the persistence of local family names etched into the rural routes that lace through the region. Beyond the immediate vicinity, the protected timber of Chelsea Flatwoods offers a dense, tangled sanctuary for local wildlife, standing in contrast to the cleared expanses of the valley floors. Life in Nabb proceeds at the speed of the changing seasons, marked by the rhythmic maintenance of fences and the distant, mechanical hum of equipment that defines the economic character of the countryside.

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.
