How to Use This Lineville, Iowa Map

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

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.

Sand Creek marks the western boundary of the local landscape, its water carving a quiet, meandering path through the earth that dictates the subtle drainage of the surrounding fields. The land here is defined by an immense, open geometry of tilled soil and seasonal crops, where the quality of light at dusk transforms the dark, fertile loam into a bruised violet expanse. A short distance away, the quiet grounds of Moore-Gosch Memorial Park offer a modest reprieve of green space, while the waters of Lions Community Park Lake remain a still, reflective presence for those seeking a moment of stillness under the wide, unencumbered firmament.

Lineville maintains an identity rooted in the persistent labor of the soil, where the economy remains tethered to the rhythmic cycles of corn and soybean production. The heritage of the area is etched into the very alignment of its streets, reflecting the pragmatism of early settlers who recognized the potential in this wide, productive prairie. Life in Lineville proceeds with a deliberate, unshowy civility, characterized by the low hum of agricultural machinery and the communal focus on the harvest. While the pace of the day is dictated by the sun and the season, the local character is marked by a steady, literate focus on the future of the land, ensuring that the legacy of those who first broke the prairie sod remains honored in the quiet, industrious persistence of every working day.

About This Lineville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lineville, Iowa. Coordinates: 40.581397, -93.52383. 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 Lineville includes the ZIP code (50147), telephone area code (515), county seat of Wayne County (Corydon), and school district assignment (Wayne Community 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.
