Explore Alabama, New York, 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 Alabama, New York. 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 York 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 Alabama.
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.

Alabama sits upon a landscape defined by the expansive, reflective stillness of Phelps Pond, which anchors the horizon four miles from the center point of the terrain. It lies 12.3 miles west-northwest of Batavia, NY (from Batavia, NY: bearing 304°T), and is situated 8.4 miles northeast of Newstead. Whitney Creek threads through the nearby lowlands, its quiet current carving a path through the earth only a mile away from the primary settlement. To the east, the geological presence of Limestone Ledge rises as a subtle, permanent boundary against the sky, while the vast, protected wetlands of the Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge offer a sanctuary for migratory life just a mile from the heart of the community. In the autumn, the light across Alabama acquires a brittle, golden clarity, illuminating the flat, fertile stretches of soil that distinguish this inland geography from the sharper elevations of distant, unseen regions.
Agriculture remains the silent pulse of Alabama, with the rhythm of the seasons dictating the quiet labor of the fields and the maintenance of the surrounding acreage. The history of the locality is etched into the modest, sturdy architecture that stands against the long, snow-heavy winters, reflecting a legacy of persistent, land-based industry. Residents observe the passing of time through the seasonal transformation of the Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge, where the changing plumage of birds and the shifting water levels provide a sensory calendar for the year. Life in Alabama moves with a deliberate, measured pace, centered on the preservation of a rural character that favors the quietude of the plains over the frantic velocity of more densely populated corridors.

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.
