How to Use This Brookhaven, New York Map

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

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 Brookhaven, New York

Brookhaven is a locality in Chemung County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,330. The population density is 221.8 people per km². Brookhaven is located at 40.7767°N, 72.9078°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 14864, 11719.

Brookhaven anchors the landscape where the terrain begins to rise into the quiet, wooded swells that define this inland reach of the state. It lies 7.6 miles north of Horseheads, NY (from Horseheads, NY: bearing 353°T), and is situated 6.2 miles north-northwest of Horseheads North. Catharine Creek carves a path through the earth nearby, its current providing a steady, rhythmic pulse to the damp soil and low-lying vegetation that blanket the valley floor. To the west, the topography deepens into the shaded folds of Johnson Hollow, while the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains serves as a permanent, muted boundary against the western sky. The light here in the late afternoon possesses a particular, thin clarity, catching the frost on the tall, dormant grasses and illuminating the subtle shift from the open plains toward the denser, tangled shadows of Cliffside State Forest.

Brookhaven preserves a temperament shaped by the slow, deliberate pace of regional agriculture and the quiet persistence of those who work the land. The proximity of Catharine Creek Fishing Access serves as a focal point for the locality, drawing those who appreciate the stillness of the water and the deliberate patience required to navigate the local streams. Economic life remains tethered to the rhythms of the seasons and the modest commerce of the surrounding countryside, far removed from the frenetic energy of distant urban centers. Residents often look toward the nearby presence of Shequaga Falls to mark the changing seasons, as the cascading water shifts from a frozen, crystalline statue in midwinter to a vigorous, rain-fed torrent during the thaw of early spring.

About This Brookhaven Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Brookhaven, New York. Coordinates: 40.776671, -72.907833. 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 Brookhaven includes the ZIP code (14864, 11719), telephone area code (607, 516), county seat of Chemung County (Elmira), and school district assignment (South Country Central 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.
