How to Use This Edison, New Jersey Map

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

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.

About Edison, New Jersey

Edison is a locality in Sussex County, New Jersey, United States. Edison is located at 41.0640°N, 74.5677°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 07871, 08817, 08818.

Edison occupies a sprawling, inland expanse where the deliberate pace of suburban life meets the rugged, quiet persistence of the Sparta Mountain Wildlife Management Area. It lies 4.3 miles east-northeast of Sparta, NJ (from Sparta, NJ: bearing 60°T), and is situated 4.4 miles west-northwest of Oak Ridge. The landscape here is characterized by a dense, textured topography, where the land rises into subtle elevations that look toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Kittatinny Mountains. Within this protected preserve, the air holds a distinct, cool clarity, especially near the quiet banks of Russia Brook, which winds through the terrain with a steady, unhurried purpose. A short distance away, the surface of Collins Pond captures the changing light of the afternoon, acting as a mirror for the shifting clouds that drift across the interior plains of the state.

Edison maintains a complex identity, balancing its role as a modern economic hub with a deep-rooted connection to the land that defines its borders. The local economy thrives on a mixture of established commercial corridors and the quiet, administrative rhythm of a region that has long served as a crossroads for industry and movement. While the influence of larger metropolitan centers remains a constant presence, the character of the locality is anchored by the protected woodlands and the preserved stretches of the Sparta Mountain Wildlife Management Area, which offer a sanctuary from the surrounding density. In the evening, as the shadows deepen across the valley of Sparta Glen, the transition from work to rest feels remarkably deliberate, reflecting a place that values its own internal balance as much as its contribution to the wider region.
