Explore Roseland, Louisiana, 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 Roseland, Louisiana. 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 Louisiana 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 Roseland.
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.

Roseland sits upon a terrain of quiet, pine-dusted earth where the humidity of the inland basin softens the edges of the day. It lies 18.3 miles north of Hammond, LA (from Hammond, LA: bearing 351°T), and is situated 2.3 miles north of Amite City. The land here holds a stillness that gathers in the hollows and lingers under the canopy of towering loblolly pines, marking a landscape defined by the subtle, persistent presence of the Tangipahoa River just a mile away. This waterway carves a slow path through the terrain, its banks serving as the literal boundary of the Tangipahoa River, where the undergrowth is thick with the tangled, verdant life of the region. As the sun begins its descent, the light takes on a bruised, amber quality, catching the dust of the backroads and casting long, thin shadows that stretch across the fields until they dissolve into the deepening gray of the woods.
Roseland carries the weight of a history rooted in the timber and rail industries that once pulsed through these woods, defining the pace of labor and the rhythm of the seasons. The economy reflects a long-standing reliance on the land, where the labor of the soil and the processing of timber have dictated the character of the people for generations. Seven miles to the west, the landscape dips into the gentle depression of Sandy Hollow, a feature that interrupts the otherwise flat, wooded expanse and speaks to the ancient shifts of the earth beneath the surface. Life in Roseland moves with the deliberate, unhurried cadence of a place that understands the value of waiting, where the passing trains and the seasonal harvest serve as the primary clock for the inhabitants.

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.
