How to Use This Louisburg, Kansas Map

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

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.

It lies 18.7 miles southeast of Gardner, KS (from Gardner, KS: bearing 135°T), and is situated 19.6 miles south-southeast of Olathe. The land surrounding Louisburg displays a modest topography, defined by expansive fields that transition into gentle rises as one looks toward the distant horizon where Badger Ridge sits thirty miles away. Travelers passing through the area might notice the way sunlight catches the swaying grasses, casting long, amber shadows that soften the edges of the horizon. Nearby, the waters of Louisburg Lake provide a reflective surface for the changing clouds, while the presence of South Wea Creek adds a steady, rhythmic pulse to the local landscape. Unknown Park offers an immediate expanse of green space where the wind carries the scent of dry soil and native vegetation across the open ground.

The local economy maintains a steady connection to these roots, balancing modern commerce with a persistent reliance on the productivity of the surrounding plains.

The atmosphere is one of understated endurance, where the simple architecture of the buildings stands in contrast to the immense, shifting theater of the Kansas sky. Life here remains grounded in the realities of the plains, offering a perspective that favors substance and community over the fleeting distractions of larger, more crowded places.

About This Louisburg Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Louisburg, Kansas. Coordinates: 38.619456, -94.68079. 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 Louisburg includes the ZIP code (66053), telephone area code (913), county seat of Miami County (Paola), and school district assignment (Louisburg Unified School District 416).

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.
