Explore Slaterville Springs, 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 Slaterville Springs, 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 Slaterville Springs.
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.

Slaterville Springs emerges from the landscape as a quiet collection of dwellings defined by the persistent, rhythmic flow of Six Mile Creek. It lies 8.1 miles east-southeast of Ithaca, NY (from Ithaca, NY: bearing 113°T), and is situated 9.0 miles southeast of Lansing. The water carves a path through the terrain, acting as a constant companion to the residents who live among the verdant, elevated topography that characterizes this inland expanse. To the east, the dense canopy of Hammond Hill State Forest exerts a profound influence on the local climate, drawing a cooling dampness into the air that settles in the valleys during the early morning hours. Beyond the immediate tree line, the land rises into a series of ridges that offer a stark, elevated contrast to the low-lying moisture of the creek bed. The light in this region possesses a particular clarity, often turning a pale, filtered gold as it catches the leaves of the hardwoods before disappearing behind the distant silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains.
Historical records of Slaterville Springs reveal a legacy tied to the natural mineral waters that once drew travelers seeking the restorative properties of the local springs. While the bustling economy of the nineteenth century has receded into a more measured, contemporary pace, the identity of Slaterville Springs remains anchored to its geology and the nearby protected lands. The proximity to Hammond Hill State Forest provides an accessible wilderness for those who prefer the stillness of the woods over the clamor of more developed regions. Life here moves in concert with the seasons, from the heavy frosts that turn the fields brittle to the humid, lush growth of summer, all while the distant thunder of Ithaca Falls hums faintly in the consciousness of those who know the geography of the surrounding plateau.

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.
