How to Use This Ogema, Minnesota Map

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

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.

Ogema sits upon a flat, expansive stretch of land where the horizon pulls the sky downward to meet the tall grasses and encroaching woodlands. It lies 20.1 miles north of Detroit Lakes, MN (from Detroit Lakes, MN: bearing 349°T), and is situated 24.0 miles northeast of Hawley. Spring Creek winds a slow, deliberate path through the earth, marking the landscape with a silver ribbon that sustains the thirsty soil and feeds the basin of Ogema Lake. In the distance, the faint, jagged silhouette of Frenchmans Bluff interrupts the otherwise level expanse, offering a quiet sentinel against the vast, shifting colors of the prairie light. The air here carries a crisp, lingering chill that speaks of the deep winters defining this northern latitude, grounding the senses in the raw, unadorned beauty of the inland plains.

Ogema grew from the sturdy ambition of those who cleared the timber and broke the sod, establishing a life tethered to the rhythmic demands of agriculture and the seasonal cycles of the woods. The local economy remains anchored to the land, reflecting a legacy of hard-won resilience that persists in the quiet industry of the region. Just a short distance away, the Spring Creek State Wildlife Management Area preserves the wilder character of the terrain, providing a sanctuary where the silence is interrupted only by the rustle of brush or the sudden flight of birds. Life in Ogema moves with a deliberate, steady pace, shaped by the heritage of the families who have long looked toward the horizon as both their inheritance and their challenge.

About This Ogema Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Ogema, Minnesota. Coordinates: 47.102738, -95.925045. 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 Ogema includes the ZIP code (56569), telephone area code (320), county seat of Becker County (Detroit Lakes), and school district assignment (Waubun-Ogema-White Earth 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.
