Explore Danville, 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 Danville, 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 Danville.
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.

Danville occupies a quiet expanse of land where the horizon is defined by the steady, unhurried posture of the inland plains. It lies 4.1 miles west of Brandywine, MD (from Brandywine, MD: bearing 259°T), and is situated 6.8 miles south-southeast of Prince Georges. Sunlight here possesses a particular clarity, catching the amber hues of late autumn grasses that stretch toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Bacon Ridge twenty-nine miles to the west. A mile from the center of Danville, the waters of Burch Branch trace a slow, serpentine path through the soil, while the still surface of Lake Ruth, just two miles distant, acts as a dark mirror for the passing clouds. Beyond the immediate fields, the dense, shadowed canopy of Cedarville State Forest marks the edge of the horizon, offering a deep, earthy scent of pine and loam that drifts into the streets whenever the wind shifts from the south.
Danville retains the quiet gravity of a place built on the steady cycles of the earth, its character shaped by a history of small-scale agriculture and the modest industry that sustains its inhabitants. Families often gather at the perimeter of Floral Park Road Park, finding a reprieve in the open grounds, or traverse the quiet length of the Panhandle Trail to observe the changing colors of the canopy. Eight miles away, the singular depression of Devils Nest remains a point of local interest, a reminder of the varied topography that hides within this quiet corner of the state. Life in Danville moves with the deliberate pace of a pendulum, where the rhythm of the day is marked not by grand events, but by the subtle transition of light across the rooftops and the enduring, practical work of those who call the region home.

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.
