How to Use This Riverland, Minnesota Map

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

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.

Riverland holds the Wild Rice River as its primary artery, a winding ribbon of water that shapes the verdant, flat expanse of the surrounding plains. It lies 35.3 miles north of Detroit Lakes, MN (from Detroit Lakes, MN: bearing 352°T), and is situated 50.0 miles northeast of Fargo. The light at dusk here possesses a particular clarity, catching the tall grasses in a golden hue before the long shadows of the northern prairie begin to stretch toward the horizon. Four miles away, the waters of Rush Lake remain a quiet presence, mirroring the vast sky while the land itself remains undisturbed by the jagged peaks of mountain ranges, save for the distant, solitary silhouette of Frenchmans Bluff rising against the western edge of the world.

Agriculture defines the pulse of Riverland, where the rhythm of the seasons dictates the slow, deliberate turn of the local economy. Much of the regional character is influenced by the proximity to Miscellaneous, a nearby area that protects the wild, unkempt beauty of the native landscape from the encroachment of modern industry. History here is found in the quiet persistence of the soil and the legacy of families who have worked this earth for generations, maintaining a life that moves with the sun rather than the clock. The air in Riverland carries the scent of damp loam and cooling grain, a simple, honest atmosphere that anchors the day-to-day existence of those who call this expanse home.

About This Riverland Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Riverland, Minnesota. Coordinates: 47.3228, -95.9512. 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 Riverland includes the ZIP code (56557), telephone area code (320), county seat of Mahnomen County (Mahnomen), and school district assignment (Mahnomen Public School District).

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.
