How to Use This Codell, Kansas Map

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

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.

Codell emerges from the expansive Kansas plains as a collection of weathered structures anchored to the earth by the steady, persistent movement of the wind. It lies 23.1 miles north-northeast of Hays, KS (from Hays, KS: bearing 20°T), and is situated 26.7 miles northwest of Russell. Paradise Creek traces a quiet path near the outskirts, its banks lined with the silver-leafed cottonwoods that lean toward the water as if listening to the low, rhythmic murmur of the current. The horizon stretches wide and unencumbered, interrupted only by the distant rise of King Hill, which stands as a silent sentinel against the shifting colors of the prairie sky. In the golden hour, the light catches the dry grasses, turning the landscape into a vast, shimmering expanse that feels both ancient and profoundly still.

Codell carries the weight of a history shaped by the resilience of those who cultivate the heavy soil, a place where the economy remains tethered to the cycles of harvest and the patient labor of the fields. While the years have seen the slow transition of industry, the spirit of the locale endures in the simple endurance of its architecture and the steady pace of its inhabitants. For those seeking the quietude of the open country, the distance to the Rooks State Fishing Lake And Wildlife Area offers a necessary reprieve, while the rugged, carved terrain of Sweetwater Canyon remains a reminder of the raw, unhurried processes of the natural world. Life in Codell persists with a quiet dignity, defined by the seasonal turning of the crops and the enduring presence of the plains that stretch toward the edge of sight.

About This Codell Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Codell, Kansas. Coordinates: 39.193344, -99.177318. 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 Codell includes the ZIP code (67663), telephone area code (785), county seat of Rooks County (Stockton), and school district assignment (Plainville Unified School District 270).

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.
