Explore Waverly, 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 Waverly, 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 Waverly.
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.

Waverly anchors itself firmly against the northern slope of the Chemung Valley, where the land rises in earnest from the low, fertile plains. It lies 15.4 miles east-southeast of Elmira, NY (from Elmira, NY: bearing 111°T), and is situated 2.3 miles north-northwest of Sayre. Cayuta Creek cuts a purposeful path through the terrain, its waters carving a steady, rhythmic divider that dictates the local topography. At the edges of the settlement, the quiet surface of Dodge Pond reflects the bruised purple of an approaching twilight, while the Village Of Waverly Land offers a modest, preserved green space where the air tastes of damp earth and coming frost. The horizon remains wide and open, holding the distant, hazy suggestion of the Appalachian Mountains far beyond the immediate reach of the valley walls.
Waverly developed its character through the industry of the rail lines and the quiet persistence of its internal commerce, evolving from a nexus of transit into a place of enduring, deliberate routine. The economy here has long been tethered to the movement of goods and the steady labor of those who know the particular weight of the region’s soil. Residents move through their days with an unpretentious focus, finding a specific comfort in the predictability of the seasons and the sturdy, unadorned architecture that lines the older streets. While the influence of larger, more frantic hubs remains a distant abstraction, Waverly maintains a distinct, self-contained pulse, defined by the intersection of its historical rail legacy and the persistent, slow-moving current of the creek.

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.
