How to Use This Albany, Missouri Map

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

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.

Albany emerges from the expansive Missouri landscape as a quiet assembly of brick and timber, defined by the steady, measured pace of the surrounding plains. It lies 10.0 miles southeast of Excelsior Springs, MO (from Excelsior Springs, MO: bearing 143°T), and is situated 8.2 miles west-southwest of Richmond. The horizon stretches wide and unencumbered, interrupted only by the distant, muted silhouette of Bone Hill rising eight miles away, while the immediate earth possesses a deep, fertile quality that drinks in the golden light of late afternoon. Travelers might pass Rollins Creek just a mile from the center, where the water moves with a modest, persistent gravity through the tall grasses. The air here holds a distinct crispness, especially as the sun dips low and the shadows lengthen across the flat, open fields that characterize the region.

Agriculture remains the primary pulse of Albany, with the rhythm of the seasons dictating the quiet industry of the storefronts and the daily routines of those who work the soil. Local life often finds a reprieve at Pigg's Landing Access, a two-mile retreat where the stillness of the woods offers a counterpoint to the orderly grid of the streets. Further out, the surface of Tanner Lake reflects the vast, changing sky, providing a four-mile sanctuary for those who favor the solitude of the water. Even as modern demands shift the economy, the character of Albany persists in the plain-spoken habits of its residents, who maintain a connection to the land that feels as enduring as the prairie itself.

About This Albany Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Albany, Missouri. Coordinates: 40.247893, -94.333455. 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 Albany includes the ZIP code (64077, 64402), telephone area code (816), county seat of Ray County (Richmond), and school district assignment (Albany R-III 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.
