How to Use This Poseyville, Indiana Map

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

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.

Poseyville occupies a flat expanse of fertile soil where the horizon expands in every direction, marked by the steady, unadorned geometry of midwestern farmland. It lies 6.7 miles west-northwest of Martin, IN (from Martin, IN: bearing 298°T), and is situated 18.3 miles northwest of Evansville. The atmosphere here carries the scent of turned earth and drying corn stalks, a quiet clarity that sharpens the transition between the vast sky and the dark, productive fields. To the west, the Black River winds through the low-lying terrain, its path obscured by thickets of riparian growth that hold the morning mist long after the sun has climbed. Beyond the immediate grid of the grid-patterned streets, the landscape lifts slightly toward the distant Foote Pond Hills, which rise like a soft, bruised shadow against the evening light. Foote Pond itself remains a mirror for the changing clouds, a small, still point of water that anchors the surrounding meadows in a landscape defined by its patience and its yield.

Poseyville grew from the persistence of early settlers who recognized the potential in this rich, inland geography, establishing a rhythm of life dictated by the seasons and the cycle of harvest. The local economy persists as a sturdy extension of this agricultural foundation, where the weight of grain bins and the movement of heavy machinery serve as the primary pulse of the workday. Residents maintain a connection to the broader region by traveling toward the New Harmony Public Access Site for recreation, finding a rare, quiet respite in the natural corridor preserved there. There is a particular dignity in the way Poseyville endures, with red-brick facades and well-tended porches reflecting a culture that values the long-term over the immediate. The pace of the day slows as the shadows lengthen across the gravel lots, leaving a sense of order that feels as permanent as the dark, heavy soil that defines the surrounding plains.

About This Poseyville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Poseyville, Indiana. Coordinates: 38.170044, -87.783082. 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 Poseyville includes the ZIP code (47633), telephone area code (812), county seat of Posey County (Mount Vernon), and school district assignment (North Posey County Schools Metropolitan School District).

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.
