How to Use This Meade, Kansas Map

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

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.

Meade occupies a vast expanse of high plains where the horizon stretches thin and taut, pulling the gaze toward a sky that dominates every acre of the landscape. It lies 36.1 miles east-northeast of Liberal, KS (from Liberal, KS: bearing 62°T), and is situated 55.6 miles south-southeast of Garden City. The earth here is defined by the subtle, persistent dip of the Artesian Valley, a shallow basin that cradles the land as it descends toward the banks of Crooked Creek. Cottonwoods lean into the wind along the water’s edge, their leaves turning a frantic, silvery gray against the persistent heat of the afternoon. To the west, the distant silhouette of Devils Backbone breaks the otherwise level line of the prairie, a reminder of the geologic patience required to endure in this high, dry basin. Light at dusk possesses a peculiar clarity, washing the wheat fields in a pale, amber glow that makes the shadows of the fence posts seem unusually long and profound.

Economic life in Meade remains tied to the rhythm of the soil and the cycles of the harvest, echoing a history built by those who broke the sod during the era of the great dry storms. The limestone courthouse stands as a quiet anchor, reflecting a legacy of resilience that permeates the local character, where the pace is dictated by the turning of the seasons rather than the haste of the modern world. Residents often find their respite at the Meade Wildlife Area, a sanctuary where the tallgrass ecosystem offers a glimpse of the state as it appeared before the plow. Whether visiting the quiet waters of Lake Meade or navigating the dusty roads that vein the farmland, one senses a deliberate, steady endurance. The people of Meade carry the weight of their heritage with a quiet grace, finding enough beauty in the simple persistence of the wind and the reliable yield of the plains to call this place home.

About This Meade Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Meade, Kansas. Coordinates: 37.28558, -100.340146. 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 Meade includes the ZIP code (67864), telephone area code (785), county seat of Meade County (Meade), and school district assignment (Meade Unified School District 226).

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.
