How to Use This Cedar Knolls, New Jersey Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cedar Knolls, New Jersey. 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 New Jersey 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 Cedar Knolls.

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.

Cedar Knolls emerges from the northern New Jersey landscape as a quiet confluence of suburban order and the persistent, winding presence of the Whippany River. It lies 2.4 miles northeast of Morristown, NJ (from Morristown, NJ: bearing 44°T), and is situated 9.8 miles west of Essex. The terrain here holds a subtle, muscular tension, defined by the steady flow of water that carves through the earth and the presence of Patriot's Path, which offers a corridor for those seeking to traverse the woods on foot. While the distant silhouette of Long Hill anchors the horizon to the west, the immediate surroundings remain dominated by the interplay of pavement and greenery, where the light at dusk catches the edges of the trees to cast long, ink-colored shadows across the lawns. A short distance away, the quiet stillness of Walrus Pond provides a reflective mirror for the sky, grounding the local geography in a modest, freshwater tranquility that feels far removed from the frantic pace of the wider world.

Cedar Knolls maintains a character forged by its transition from older, industrial roots into the contemporary rhythm of a residential and professional hub. Residents move through their days with a focus on the practicalities of modern life, though the proximity to the Rockaway Valley hints at the geological shifts that shaped this region long before the current sprawl of office parks and homes took hold. The economy here functions with a steady, quiet hum, echoing the historical labor that once relied on the nearby waterways, now replaced by the quiet industry of daily transit and commerce. Every evening, the air carries a crisp, inland clarity, and the people of Cedar Knolls live in a space that balances the persistence of the natural world with the organized, measured progress of their own making.

About This Cedar Knolls Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cedar Knolls, New Jersey. Coordinates: 40.822044, -74.448765. 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 Cedar Knolls includes the ZIP code (07927), telephone area code (908), county seat of Morris County (Morristown), and school district assignment (Hanover Park Regional 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.
