Explore Parkerfield, 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 Parkerfield, 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 Parkerfield.
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.

Parkerfield occupies a quiet expanse of the Kansas plains where the horizon stretches thin and pale against the vast, shifting sky. It lies 2.3 miles east-northeast of Arkansas City, KS (from Arkansas City, KS: bearing 67°T), and is situated 11.4 miles south of Winfield. Sunlight here possesses a particular clarity, bleaching the tallgrass to a soft, flaxen hue and casting long, deliberate shadows across the open fields. Only a mile away, the Walnut River cuts a slow, deliberate path through the earth, its banks lined with the gnarled, silver-barked cottonwoods that thrive in the damp soil. To the west, the land begins a subtle, rhythmic transition toward the rugged character of the Flint Hills, while the deeper earth of Baugh Canyon lies further out, a reminder of the ancient forces that shaped this terrain. The air carries the scent of dry earth and turning seasons, a steady atmosphere that defines the physical presence of Parkerfield.
Agriculture remains the pulse of the local economy, with the collective labor of the harvest dictating the seasonal cadence of life. Families who have worked these plots for generations still navigate the same soil, their daily routines calibrated to the demands of the wheat cycle and the unpredictable temperament of the wind. Just a short distance away, the Prairie Passage Recreation Area offers a conserved glimpse of the native landscape, preserved for those who seek the quiet persistence of the prairie. While the bustling commerce of larger hubs feels distant, the inhabitants find a singular grace in the isolation, watching the light soften over the plains as the day recedes. Even with Kaw Lake situated twelve miles off, the life of the region remains tethered to the slow, terrestrial rhythms of the land, where history is found not in grand monuments, but in the enduring, quiet endurance of the fence lines and the open, uncrowded road.

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.
