Explore Roland, 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 Roland, 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 Roland.
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.

Roland marks a point of convergence where the persistent red dirt of the plains meets the quiet, persistent flow of Garrison Creek. It lies 7.0 miles west-northwest of Fort Smith, AR (from Fort Smith, AR: bearing 290°T), and is situated 9.4 miles west of Van Buren. The landscape here unfolds in a series of low, earthbound swells that lead the eye toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Miller Ridge. Light in the late afternoon catches the iron-rich soil, turning the ground a bruised, vibrant copper that seems to hold the heat long after the sun dips behind the treeline. Beyond the immediate vicinity, the terrain drops into the quiet, shaded depths of Remy Hollow, where the air grows heavy with the scent of damp earth and thicket. Roland City Park provides a necessary clearing in this landscape, a place where the local rhythm is measured by the slow shift of shadows across the grass rather than the frantic pace of the wider world.
History in Roland remains etched in the collective memory of the surrounding tribal lands, a quiet endurance that predates the modern sprawl. The local economy draws its strength from the steady, pragmatic labor that defines this slice of the interior, balancing the agricultural heritage of the region with the hum of modern commerce. Residents often travel toward the River Trail to find a moment of stillness, walking paths that trace the land’s natural contours, or they look toward the horizon where the waters of Lee Creek Reservoir catch the sky. Life here moves with a deliberate, unadorned honesty, rooted in the hard-packed soil and the knowledge that the horizon is vast and indifferent. It is a place that does not ask to be noticed, content instead to exist in the quiet space between the creek’s murmur and the far-off, blue-gray rise of the ridge.

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.
