How to Use This Vermillion, Indiana Map

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

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.

Vermillion reveals itself through a mosaic of woodlots and expansive, productive farmland that defines the horizon. It lies 6.8 miles southwest of Howard, IN (from Howard, IN: bearing 234°T), and is situated 14.5 miles north-northwest of Clinton. Jonathan Creek carves a quiet path only one mile away, its waters moving with a steady, deliberate purpose through the landscape. Eight miles to the west, the rugged profile of Devils Backbone rises against the sky, providing a stark contrast to the flatter, fertile plains that surround the locality. Residents often look toward the gentle relief of the land, where the light at dusk catches the edges of the fields in a soft, amber glow. Chew Lake sits five miles away, offering a tranquil mirror to the vast, open canopy of the Midwestern sky.

Vermillion carries the weight of a history rooted in the soil, where the rhythm of the seasons dictates the pace of local life. The economy remains tethered to the productivity of the earth, as modern agriculture and industry work in tandem to sustain the region. Small-scale operations and larger enterprises alike draw upon the natural resources of the area, maintaining a steady, grounded existence far from the frantic energy of urban centers. Over the decades, the infrastructure has evolved to support these endeavors, reflecting a pragmatic approach to growth that prioritizes resilience. Life in Vermillion moves with the calculated, patient efficiency of a machine designed to endure through changing economic climates.

Cultural life in Vermillion centers on a quiet pride in local stewardship and the preservation of the surrounding wilderness. The Harry "Babe" Woodyard State Natural Area, located seven miles away, serves as a vital refuge where the original character of the land remains undisturbed by the march of progress. Visitors often find solace in the deep, shaded quiet of Deadmans Hollow, an eight-mile trek that offers a glimpse into the geological history of the basin. While the pace of daily affairs remains modest, the community maintains a strong sense of identity shaped by the particular geography of the region. Every afternoon, the stillness of the air suggests a place where the people are content to let the world turn at its own speed, finding beauty in the simple, unadorned reality of the plains.

About This Vermillion Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Vermillion, Indiana. Coordinates: 39.858, -87.478. 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 Vermillion includes the ZIP code (47847, 47833), telephone area code (765), county seat of Vermillion County (Newport), and school district assignment.

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.
