How to Use This Atlanta, Nebraska Map

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

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.

Atlanta is a locality in Phelps County, Nebraska, United States. It is a small community with a population of 106. The population density is 177.2 people per km².

Atlanta occupies a flat, expansive stretch of the Great Plains where the sky dictates the daily mood of the land. It lies 30.9 miles southwest of Kearney, NE (from Kearney, NE: bearing 222°T), and is situated 7.4 miles southwest of Holdrege. The horizon serves as the primary fact of life here, a vast and level boundary that emphasizes the solitude of the surrounding prairie. To the north, the landscape is punctuated by the quiet waters of Peterson North Reservoir, while the meandering path of School Creek tracks through the fields only two miles away. Far to the west, the faint, hazy silhouette of Union Ridge emerges against the twilight, a distant reminder of the earth’s tectonic ambition. The Phelps County Waterfowl Production Area provides a sanctuary for migratory birds, its grasses rippling in the breeze like the surface of a golden, terrestrial sea.

Atlanta remains deeply rooted in the agricultural traditions that first broke the prairie sod, with the rhythm of the seasons governing the local economy. The heavy, dark soil supports the steady labor of farmers who have transformed the plains into a mosaic of cultivated crops. History lingers in the quiet persistence of the grain elevators that stand as sentinels against the expansive sky, watching over the steady pulse of harvest and planting. Life in Atlanta moves with the deliberate pace of a pendulum, unburdened by the frantic noise of larger centers, allowing the inhabitants to observe the subtle shifts in light as the sun retreats behind the distant, shadowed reaches of the landscape.

About This Atlanta Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Atlanta, Nebraska. Coordinates: 40.366677, -99.47316. 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 Atlanta includes the ZIP code (68923), telephone area code (308), county seat of Phelps County (Holdrege), and school district assignment (Loomis Public Schools).

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.
