How to Use This Carnot-Moon, Pennsylvania Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Carnot-Moon, Pennsylvania. 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 Pennsylvania 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 Carnot-Moon.

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.

Carnot-Moon emerges from the solid, earth-bound geography of western Pennsylvania as a place where the landscape speaks in the quiet language of ridges and hollows. It lies 8.2 miles west-southwest of Franklin Park, PA (from Franklin Park, PA: bearing 237°T), and is situated 5.6 miles south of Economy. Meeks Creek carves a thin, reflective silver path through the terrain just one mile from the center, feeding the local drainage patterns with a persistent, low-slung momentum. To the east, the distant silhouette of the Allegheny Mountains creates a jagged gray line against the fading light of late afternoon. The land here holds the weight of the interior, sitting firmly 219 miles from any salt-heavy air or rising tide. Residents often gather at the Amherst Play Lot, a small patch of green space that serves as the immediate horizon for the neighborhood.

Industrial echoes define the historical bedrock of Carnot-Moon, as the region grew in tandem with the heavy labor and steel-wrought ambitions of the greater Pittsburgh corridor. Early commerce thrived on the movement of coal and manufactured goods, weaving a local economy that shifted from raw extraction to the intricate logistics of modern regional distribution. The legacy of these industries remains visible in the sturdy, brick-faced architecture that anchors the streets against the seasonal cycle of frost and thaw. Employment now leans into professional services and regional trade, reflecting a transition from the furnace to the office park. Even with these modern shifts, the pace of life maintains a deliberate, measured gravity, honoring the grit required to build a life in this demanding inland climate.

Cultural character in Carnot-Moon is defined by a persistent, unpretentious endurance that mirrors the surrounding plateau. The community finds its rhythm in small, daily movements, such as the quiet commute through the nearby Fern Hollow or the occasional visit to the water's edge at Sedimentation Pond Number Three. While the area serves as a quiet residential corridor, it remains connected to the broader, storied intellectual and athletic life of Pennsylvania’s larger academic institutions. The landscape avoids the grandiosity of tourist destinations, favoring instead the honest, muted colors of a changing season across the local woods. Life here is lived in the intervals between the major highways, where the air feels thin and sharp, undisturbed by the clamor of coastal life.

About This Carnot-Moon Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Carnot-Moon, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.5187, -80.2178. 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 Carnot-Moon includes the ZIP code (15108), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Allegheny County (Pittsburgh), and school district assignment (Moon Area School District).

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.
