How to Use This Matfield Green, Kansas Map

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

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.

Matfield Green emerges from the sweeping expanse of the tallgrass prairie, where the horizon stretches thin and taut under a sky that dwarfs the earth below. It lies 26.6 miles southwest of Emporia, KS (from Emporia, KS: bearing 231°T), and is situated 28.8 miles northeast of El Dorado. The South Fork Cottonwood River carves a quiet, meandering path through the landscape, its banks lined with the silver-leafed trees that lean toward the water as if listening to the steady, rhythmic pulse of the current. To the west, the subtle rise of Texaco Hill breaks the monotony of the plains, acting as a silent sentinel over the miles of undulating grass that glow with a pale, bruised gold during the final hours of light. The air here carries the scent of dry earth and sun-warmed stems, a stillness that feels less like emptiness and more like an intense, singular focus on the endurance of the land itself.

Matfield Green sustains a character forged by the persistence of ranching and the slow, deliberate work of those who manage the vast, open pastures that define the region. Far from the frantic pace of industrial centers, the local life turns on the cycles of the seasons and the management of the land, with the Greater Flint Hills Fee providing a vast, protected sanctuary for the native grasses that have defined this geography for generations. While the memory of harder, dust-blown years lingers in the architectural lines of the older structures, the present-day rhythm is quiet, dictated by the movement of cattle and the shifting intensity of the wind. There is a profound clarity in the way the light catches the limestone outcrops, a reminder that Matfield Green exists as a distinct, unyielding point of human presence within an ancient and indifferent expanse.

About This Matfield Green Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Matfield Green, Kansas. Coordinates: 38.159184, -96.560566. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

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.
