Explore Long Island, 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 Long Island, 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 Long Island.
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.

Long Island emerges from the high plains as a quiet intersection of earth and sky, where the horizon stretches flat and wide enough to swallow the sun whole. It lies 74.8 miles north of Hays, KS (from Hays, KS: bearing 351°T), and is situated 17.5 miles northwest of Phillipsburg. Elk Creek carves a thin, vital ribbon through the landscape, its banks lined with the rustling, silver-backed leaves of cottonwoods that shiver even when the air hangs heavy and still. In the distance, the silhouette of Sappa Peak breaks the monotony of the prairie, a lonely sentinel watching over fields that turn from the pale gold of wheat to the deep, bruised purple of a coming storm. The light here has a peculiar quality, sharpening the edges of fence posts and grain silos until they seem to cut into the atmosphere itself, grounding the vastness in a sudden, intense clarity.
Agriculture defines the pulse of Long Island, where the economy remains tethered to the patient, seasonal labor of the soil and the unpredictable temper of the regional climate. The legacy of those who settled this expanse lingers in the weathered wood of old barns and the resilient spirit required to endure the long, wind-scoured winters. Residents often look toward the water at Atkinson Reservoir or travel toward the Harlan County Recreation Area when they seek a reprieve from the relentless work of the harvest. Life in Long Island moves with the deliberate pace of a pendulum, marking time not by the clock, but by the slow rotation of crops and the way the shadows lengthen across the dust-caked roads at the end of a long day.

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.
