Explore Tampa, 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 Tampa, 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 Tampa.
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.

Tampa rises from the expansive, sun-drenched plains of Kansas where the horizon stretches wide enough to swallow the day. It lies 30.2 miles east-northeast of McPherson, KS (from McPherson, KS: bearing 66°T), and is situated 13.8 miles north-northeast of Hillsboro. Mud Creek carves a narrow, winding path through the soil nearby, its banks lined with the silver-leafed cottonwoods that tremble in the persistent, restless wind. Beyond the immediate flatlands, the distant peaks of the Smoky Hills appear as a faint, jagged bruise against the violet sky at dusk, marking the edge of the world. The air here carries the dry, honest scent of turned earth and ripening wheat, a reminder of the land’s enduring grip on the spirit. Those who traverse the local roads often find solace in the solitude of Terrace Lane Farm, where the stillness of the landscape offers a reprieve from the relentless motion of the clouds above.
Tampa endures as a quiet anchor of agricultural life, its existence defined by the rhythm of the harvest and the resilience of the prairie settlers who first broke this ground. The local economy remains tethered to the fertile potential of the plains, where the labor of the seasons dictates the pulse of the streets and the quiet commerce of the storefronts. While the rush of modern life bypasses these quiet grids, a deep sense of history persists in the weathered limestone foundations and the memories of a time when the railroad dictated the reach of the frontier. Residents often look toward the horizon with a steady, pragmatic gaze, knowing that while the nearest water at Lake Herington provides a local gathering point, the true character of Tampa is forged in the long, golden hours spent working the fields under an unrelenting and beautiful sky.

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.
