How to Use This Temple, Oklahoma Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Temple, 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 Temple.

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.

Temple emerges from the expanse of the southern plains as a quiet settlement defined by the relentless, restless wind that scours the red dirt of the horizon. It lies 22.5 miles southwest of Duncan, OK (from Duncan, OK: bearing 225°T), and is situated 7.3 miles southeast of Walters. The landscape surrounding Temple is a vast, open theater of earth and sky, where the light at dusk bleeds into a bruised violet across the flat, sun-baked fields. To the north, the distant outline of Pumpkin Ridge anchors the view, a faint serrated edge against the wide Oklahoma sky. Nearby, the water of Temple Lake catches the daylight in a mirror of stillness, while the banks of Whiskey Creek trace a thin, darkened vein through the tall grass, offering a modest sanctuary for the local flora.

Agriculture and the long, deep memory of the land provide the pulse for daily life here, where the economy remains tethered to the harvest and the quiet cycles of rural industry. Travelers passing through might find a deeper stillness in the Waurika Wildlife Management Area, a stretch of land that preserves a sense of the untamed prairie that once defined this territory. The character of the place is built upon the endurance of those who work the soil, a rhythm slow and deliberate, mirroring the seasonal turning of the wheat and the steady persistence of the people. It is a place where the history of the plains is written not in stone, but in the way the air holds the scent of dry earth after a storm, and in the unadorned resilience of a life lived under an immense, unblinking dome of blue.

About This Temple Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Temple, Oklahoma. Coordinates: 34.272034, -98.235878. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Temple includes the ZIP code (73568), telephone area code (405), county seat of Cotton County (Walters), and school district assignment (Temple Public Schools).

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.
