Explore Landa, North Dakota, 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 Landa, North Dakota. 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 North Dakota 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 Landa.
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.

Landa emerges from the vast, golden expanse of the North Dakota prairie like a quiet thought held against an enormous, unblinking sky. It lies 49.1 miles north-northeast of Minot, ND (from Minot, ND: bearing 21°T), and is situated 21.7 miles west-northwest of Bottineau. The horizon here possesses a singular, crushing scale, where the earth flattens into a persistent table of wheat and stubble, punctuated only by the vertical reach of grain elevators and the occasional solitary tree. Two miles to the east, the Souris River carves a subtle, winding path through the silt, its presence marked by a thin ribbon of riparian green that interrupts the otherwise relentless pallor of the plains. To the north, the distant outline of Boundary Butte offers a faint, jagged interruption to the visual silence, while the far-off, dark mass of the Turtle Mountain State Forest looms like a bruised cloud, reminding the traveler of the rugged, wooded rise that persists beyond the reach of the immediate plains.
Landa persists as a testament to the iron-willed expansion of the railroad era, a node of commerce once tethered to the rhythmic pulse of grain harvests and the transit of heavy steel across the high plains. The local economy remains anchored to the soil, a cycle of sowing and reaping that dictates the tempo of life far more than the ticking of a clock. To the south, the J. Clark Salyer National Wildlife Refuge provides a sanctuary for migratory birds, their seasonal cries cutting through the stillness that defines the day-to-day existence of those who remain. Life in Landa carries a deliberate, stripped-back quality, defined by the biting clarity of the winter air and the shimmering, heat-heavy light of mid-July afternoons, where the silence is less an absence of sound than a presence that demands to be acknowledged.

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.
