Explore Atwood, Oklahoma, 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 Atwood, Oklahoma. 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 Oklahoma 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 Atwood.
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.

Atwood exists as a quiet confluence of red earth and stubborn prairie grass, defined by the persistent, winding path of Leader Creek as it carves through the local terrain. It lies 23.0 miles east-northeast of Ada, OK (from Ada, OK: bearing 57°T), and is situated 9.2 miles south-southeast of Holdenville. The landscape here is characterized by the expansive, open horizon of the Cross Timbers, where the sun at dusk bleeds a bruised violet across the sky, casting long, skeletal shadows from the scrub oaks onto the iron-rich soil. To the distant west, the faint, hazy silhouette of Big Prairie Ridge provides a jagged anchor to the otherwise level expanse, offering a silent reminder of the geological depth inherent in this land. The air possesses a dry, parched clarity, carrying the scent of wild sage and the subtle, metallic tang of the nearby Oknoname 063037 Reservoir, which holds the stillness of a mirror under the midday heat.
Atwood carries the weight of a complex heritage, standing as a witness to the shifting tides of the Oklahoma interior where the memory of earlier territorial eras remains etched into the rhythm of daily life. The regional economy has long been tethered to the pulse of the land, fluctuating with the demands of agriculture and the legacy of oil exploration that once turned the local soil into a landscape of steel derricks and sudden prosperity. Residents maintain a measured, deliberate pace, mindful of a time when the surrounding plains were defined by the movement of cattle and the quiet industry of homesteaders. While the bustle of larger centers remains far removed, a sense of place is preserved in the modest, sturdy architecture and the local pride that turns toward Stroup Park when the seasons shift, offering a rare, manicured refuge from the wilder, unyielding grass of the surrounding countryside.

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.
