How to Use This New Augusta, Mississippi Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for New Augusta, Mississippi. 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 Mississippi 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 Augusta.

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 Augusta emerges from the pine-thickened landscape of the Pine Belt, where the earth holds a persistent, sandy humidity and the light thickens into a heavy gold as the day wanes. It lies 16.6 miles southeast of Petal, MS (from Petal, MS: bearing 127°T), and is situated 17.4 miles east-southeast of Hattiesburg. The Leaf River cuts a slow, serpentine path just a mile from the center, its dark waters reflecting the towering loblolly pines that define the horizon. Beyond the immediate canopy, the terrain rises and falls in modest swells toward the distant, rugged elevation of Deadman Hill, while the expansive De Soto National Forest provides a verdant, protected border that dictates the rhythm of the local wilderness. In the quiet reaches of the afternoon, the air remains still, save for the occasional vibration of heat rising from the pavement and the sigh of wind moving through the long needles of the pines.

New Augusta serves as the seat of Perry County, maintaining a quiet administrative gravity that anchors the surrounding timber and agricultural interests. The economy remains tethered to the land, drawing its vitality from the vast tracts of woodland that define the region's industry and provide a livelihood for generations of families. While the deeper, shadowed recesses of Steep Hollow lie ten miles away, the history of New Augusta is written in the steady, utilitarian architecture of its public buildings and the persistent, unadorned work ethic of its residents. Life here proceeds without fanfare, governed by the seasonal cycles of the forest and the slow, deliberate pace of a place that values continuity over the frantic speed of the modern world.
