Explore New Windsor, 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 New Windsor, 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 New Windsor.
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.

New Windsor occupies a quiet expanse of the Maryland Piedmont, where the land rises and falls in long, rhythmic folds of earth that lead the eye toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains. It lies 6.4 miles west-southwest of Westminster, MD (from Westminster, MD: bearing 249°T), and is situated 8.8 miles northeast of Linganore. The Dickenson Run carves a modest, persistent path through the terrain, its waters threading through the landscape with a quiet urgency that defines the local drainage. Beyond the immediate rise of the ground, the landscape softens into the gentle depression of Wakefield Valley, offering a sense of enclosure that keeps the horizon contained and intimate. At dusk, the light here takes on a pale, amber quality, catching the edges of the fields and casting long, thin shadows that stretch across the grasses of New Windsor Parks & Recreation, where the silence is broken only by the movement of wind through the trees.
Agriculture and the quiet persistence of industry have long defined the character of New Windsor, shaping its development from its early days as a crossroads for travelers and local farmers. While the pace of life remains measured, the influence of historical craftsmanship and service persists, grounding the daily experience of the residents in a tradition of careful, deliberate work. The local economy draws its strength from this long-standing connection to the land, supported by the modest proximity of resources like the County Home Farm Pond, which serves as a quiet fixture in the surrounding geography. Throughout the day, the rhythm of life in New Windsor reflects a balance between the demands of the modern world and the enduring, steady habits of a place that has learned to grow slowly and with purpose.

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.
