Explore Latham, Missouri, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Latham, 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 Latham.
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.

Latham occupies a quiet expanse of the Missouri interior, where the land stretches out in wide, unyielding fields that turn a dusty gold under the late afternoon sun. It lies 27.5 miles west of Jefferson City, MO (from Jefferson City, MO: bearing 268°T), and is situated 7.8 miles southwest of California. A single mile to the west, Pilot Branch cuts a thin, silver vein through the soil, its banks lined with dense thickets that hold the damp chill of the earth long after the morning fog has lifted. To the south, the faint, jagged silhouette of Dill Ridge breaks the horizon, a distant reminder of the rugged terrain that gives way to the flatter, more manageable ground here. The air carries the scent of dry stalks and turned dirt, a sharp, honest fragrance that defines the transition from the wooded draws to the open, expansive plains.
Latham maintains a pace dictated by the seasonal cycle of harvest and growth, its economy deeply tethered to the surrounding agriculture that has sustained the families here for generations. Six miles away, the quiet waters of Derbey Lake and the protected expanses of the Manito Lake Conservation Area provide a necessary counterpoint to the working fields, offering a sanctuary for migratory birds and those seeking the stillness of the brush. The local character is defined by a plain-spoken reserve, a legacy of the settlers who broke this ground and learned to navigate the slow, deliberate rhythm of rural life. Life in Latham proceeds without fanfare, marked by the steady hum of machinery in the distance and the enduring, stoic patience of a place that remains firmly rooted in the landscape.

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.
