Explore Schriever, 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 Schriever, 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 Schriever.
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.

Schriever occupies a quiet expanse of land where the flat, fertile plains stretch toward the horizon under a heavy, humid sky. It lies 3.8 miles south-southeast of Thibodaux, LA (from Thibodaux, LA: bearing 169°T), and is situated 8.9 miles north-northwest of Bayou Cane. Bayou Terrebonne flows past the landscape with a slow, deliberate gravity, carving a path through the rich, dark soil that characterizes the region. The air here holds a stillness that seems to suspend the afternoon, softening the edges of the cypress trees that stand guard along the water. Beyond the immediate banks, the terrain remains level, offering a vast, open perspective that shifts in color as the sun traces its arc. Twelve miles inland from the nearest coastline, Schriever maintains a grounded, interior character far removed from the turbulent restlessness of the open water.
Schriever grew from the necessity of the land, its history deeply entwined with the agricultural cycles that define the surrounding acreage. Sugarcane fields provide the primary rhythm for the local economy, their long green stalks swaying in the breeze like a slow-moving tide. Industrial activity remains tethered to the resourcefulness of the region, with workers managing the transit and processing of goods that sustain the local livelihood. Acadia Park provides a place for recreation, offering a simple green reprieve that reflects the modest, hardworking spirit of the residents. The commerce of Schriever relies on this steady connection to the earth, favoring a pace that values consistency over rapid transformation.
Cultural identity in Schriever emerges from a layered heritage, where the influence of Cajun and Creole traditions colors the way people gather and converse. Life moves with an unpretentious grace, often marked by the simple pleasure of a shared meal or the quiet observation of the evening light hitting the fields. While the region is not defined by singular monuments, the presence of Lake Boeuf eleven miles away serves as a distant, familiar point in the local geography. Famous individuals such as the legendary musician Dr. John—born Malcolm John Rebennack—carry the spirit of this region into the wider world through a distinct, soulful musicality. Those who inhabit Schriever understand the value of a slow, deliberate existence, finding beauty in the unassuming stretch of plains and the rhythmic pull of the seasonal harvest.

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.
