Explore Dameron, Maryland, 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 Dameron, Maryland. 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 Maryland 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 Dameron.
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.

Dameron occupies a low-lying expanse where the air holds a persistent, briny dampness that clings to the skin during the humid Maryland summers. It lies 3.2 miles north of Saint Marys, MD (from Saint Marys, MD: bearing 355°T), and is situated 9.1 miles south-southeast of Lexington Park. Salt-marsh grasses sway in the breeze near Church Creek, a narrow ribbon of water that carves a quiet path through the landscape toward the distant, shimmering expanse of Saint Jerome Creek. To the west, the horizon remains flat and expansive, though on the clearest days, one might catch the faint, serrated outline of Cherry Ridge rising far beyond the reach of the local tide. The light here has a peculiar quality, turning a milky, bruised gray as it reflects off the damp earth and the still, dark surface of Carroll Pond, grounding the scenery in a somber, quiet beauty.
Dameron bears the quiet weight of colonial-era persistence, its economy long tethered to the harvest of the local waters and the steady, rhythmic demands of the land. Beyond the immediate reach of the shoreline, the terrain stretches toward the Carthagena Flats, a basin that defines the agricultural character of the region and underscores the slow, deliberate pace of life found here. Residents often find their way toward Lp5014 to witness the seasonal shifts in the local flora, an area that serves as a necessary buffer against the encroachment of modern development. While Jimmy Island remains a distant, marshy curiosity on the water, the people of Dameron maintain a modest, unpretentious existence, defined less by grand landmarks and more by the enduring stability of their surroundings.

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.
