How to Use This Vermillion, Minnesota Map

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

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.

Vermillion emerges from the flat, expansive plains of the Upper Midwest as a place where the sky commands a vast and humbling presence over the earth. It lies 7.4 miles southwest of Hastings, MN (from Hastings, MN: bearing 230°T), and is situated 9.0 miles east-southeast of Rosemount. The Vermillion River carves a quiet, serpentine path through the terrain, its waters cooling the soil and feeding the verdant margins of the Vermillion River State Aquatic Management Area (Dakota), where the tall grasses sway in the rhythmic, insistent push of the prairie wind. Five miles to the north, the surface of Spring Lake mirrors the shifting moods of the clouds, while the distant, hazy silhouette of Warrentown Ridge anchors the horizon against the encroaching gray of a winter sky. The air here holds a crisp, clean clarity, tasting of turned earth and the impending frost that defines the changing seasons in this inland basin.

Agriculture remains the pulse of Vermillion, with rows of corn and soybean stretching toward the horizon, marking the slow, deliberate turn of the year. The settlement grew from the stubborn labor of pioneers who recognized the fertility of these plains, establishing a rhythm of life that still favors the steady hand of the farmer and the local harvest over the frantic pace of the distant city. Beyond the immediate fields, the depression of Pine Coulee serves as a reminder of the ancient forces that shaped this landscape long before the first plow broke the sod. Life in Vermillion moves with the quiet confidence of a place that understands its own roots, finding beauty in the stark, golden light of late autumn and the enduring, silent strength of the land.

About This Vermillion Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Vermillion, Minnesota. Coordinates: 44.673578, -92.967154. 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 Vermillion includes the ZIP code (55085), telephone area code (612, 952), county seat of Dakota County (Hastings), and school district assignment (Hastings 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.
