How to Use This Pomeroy, Iowa Map

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

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.

Pomeroy anchors itself to the horizon where the sky meets the flat, fertile expanse of the Iowa prairie. It lies 26.5 miles west of Fort Dodge, IA (from Fort Dodge, IA: bearing 278°T), and is situated 11.1 miles north-northwest of Rockwell City. A mile away, the West Fork Camp Creek traces a quiet path through the soil, its banks defined by the patient work of seasonal rains and the slow turn of the seasons. Four miles to the distance, the Ted Fariss Wildlife Area "Lundberg Slough" offers a sanctuary of tall grasses and marshy ground, while North Twin Lake sits five miles off, mirroring the expansive clouds that drift over the plains. The air here holds the scent of turned earth and drying stalks, a crisp clarity that arrives when the sun dips low, casting long, lean shadows across the fields that seem to stretch into infinity.

Pomeroy reflects a heritage built upon the industry of those who first broke the thick, stubborn sod to plant rows of corn and soybeans. The local economy remains tethered to this rhythmic cycle of harvest and growth, a quiet persistence that has defined the character of the people for generations. Though the pace of life maintains an unhurried quality, there is a sharp, literate civility in the way the streets are kept and the storefronts are managed. Even in the stillness of a gray afternoon, one senses the weight of history in the grain elevators that stand like sentinels above the houses, marking the point where the labor of the land meets the daily life of the residents.

About This Pomeroy Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Pomeroy, Iowa. Coordinates: 42.551088, -94.683869. 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 Pomeroy includes the ZIP code (50575), telephone area code (319), county seat of Calhoun County (Rockwell City), and school district assignment (Pocahontas Area 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.
