Explore Augusta, Kansas, 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 Augusta, Kansas. 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 Kansas 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 Augusta.
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.

Augusta rises from the flat, expansive plains where the light at dusk turns the horizon into a thin, glowing ribbon of gold. It lies 8.9 miles east-southeast of Andover, KS (from Andover, KS: bearing 102°T), and is situated 19.7 miles east of Wichita. The landscape surrounding Augusta remains defined by the vast reach of the prairie, where the wind carries the scent of dry earth and tallgrass. Elm Creek carves a quiet, meandering path through the terrain just a mile away, its banks lined with the silver-leafed cottonwoods that lean toward the water. To the west, the land stretches out in a steady, rhythmic expanse, while the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Cup and Saucer Hills mark the edge of the world on the far horizon. Residents often find solace at Augusta Lake, a calm, reflective expanse of water that mirrors the shifting colors of the Kansas sky.
Augusta grew from the resilient ambition of pioneers who recognized the potential in the fertile soil and the convergence of regional trade routes. The local economy evolved from the early promise of agriculture into a diverse industrial base, anchored by long-standing traditions of refinement and production. Workers here possess a quiet, steady competence, reflecting a history shaped by the labor of those who built the foundations of the regional infrastructure. Though the prairie demands a certain toughness from its inhabitants, Augusta maintains a modest, industrious energy that persists through every season. The rhythm of daily life aligns with the steady hum of commerce, keeping the pace deliberate and focused on the work at hand.
Culture in Augusta flows from a deep sense of neighborly connection, anchored by the presence of Moyle Field, which serves as a communal gathering point under the wide, unobstructed sky. The local character is marked by an unpretentious warmth, where the history of the plains informs the way people move through their day. Notable landmarks, such as the historic downtown structures, stand as reminders of the town’s endurance and its ongoing evolution. While the town remains grounded in its regional identity, it has been home to individuals like the musician Joe Walsh, whose early life here contributed to a broader creative trajectory. Events throughout the year draw the people of Augusta together, reinforcing a shared spirit that remains as constant as the wind across the plains.

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.
