How to Use This Landover, Maryland Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Landover, 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 Landover.

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.

Landover reveals its character through the quiet, persistent flow of Beaverdam Creek, which meanders past the local landscape with a steady, enduring grace. It lies 2.4 miles southeast of East Riverdale, MD (from East Riverdale, MD: bearing 145°T), and is situated 8.0 miles east-northeast of Washington. The terrain here holds a subtle, muted beauty, where the light at dusk settles over the fields in long, amber streaks that soften the edges of the horizon. Though the Appalachian Mountains wait far to the west, their distant presence lends a sense of scale to the wide, open sky above. To the east, the air carries a faint, salt-tinged memory of the coast, as if the tides of the Navy Yard Channel still whisper secrets to the inland soil. Residents often find respite in the green expanse of Landover Hills, a place where the earth remains undisturbed and the local flora thrives in the humid, seasonal warmth.

Landover grew from a quiet crossroads into a hub defined by the steady pulse of commerce and the industrious spirit of its people. The local economy draws strength from its connectivity, serving as a vital artery for the movement of goods and ideas across the region. Small workshops and bustling service centers occupy the spaces once held by older, simpler enterprises, marking a transition toward modern utility. While the past remains visible in the architecture of older foundations, the current focus rests upon sustaining a livelihood that supports a diverse, working population. As the seasons turn, the rhythm of industry here remains constant, echoing the persistent, functional nature of a place that values progress and practical labor.

Landover fosters a cultural identity that is both resilient and welcoming, shaped by the voices of those who have made their lives here. The proximity to Lake Artemesia provides a serene backdrop for weekend gatherings, where the water reflects the shifting clouds and offers a brief, quiet pause from the daily rush. Notable figures like the legendary basketball player Kevin Durant have roots that trace back to this corner of the world, carrying the local spirit into the wider public consciousness. Community events often center around shared traditions that honor the neighborhood’s heritage while embracing the evolving tapestry of its inhabitants. Whether walking near the Burnham Barrier or reflecting on the quietude of the Piney Branch Valley, one senses a place that is grounded in its own unique, unfolding story.

About This Landover Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Landover, Maryland. Coordinates: 38.924395, -76.887604. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Landover includes the ZIP code (20784), telephone area code (301, 240), county seat of Prince George's County (Upper Marlboro), and school district assignment (Prince George's County Public Schools).

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.
