How to Use This Commodore, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Commodore sits firmly upon the uneven spine of the Allegheny Plateau, where the earth rises in slow, deliberate swells toward the distant, hazy blue of the Allegheny Mountains. It lies 12.7 miles east-northeast of Indiana, PA (from Indiana, PA: bearing 60°T), and is situated 9.3 miles west-northwest of Northern Cambria. The North Branch Two Lick Creek carves a path through the valley floor near the settlement, its waters moving with a steady, monochromatic persistence over smooth river stones and dark silt. Sunlight here arrives slanted and thin, catching the edges of the hardwoods that crowd the slopes and casting long, sharp shadows across the Green Township Ballfield, where the cut grass holds the dampness of the morning for most of the day. The air carries the scent of damp shale and cooling earth, a quiet reminder of the deep, geological patience that defines this stretch of the Pennsylvania interior.

Commodore retains the quiet, weathered character of a place built on the extraction of what lay beneath the topsoil, its history tied to the labor of the coal seams that once dictated the rhythm of local life. While the heavy industry of the past has receded, the town maintains a steady, internal gravity, with its economy now turning on the slow maintenance of homes and the modest commerce of a rural crossroads. Life moves in accordance with the turning of the seasons, marked by the maintenance of equipment and the occasional gathering of neighbors at the local ballfield. Seven miles away, the expanse of Two Lick Creek Reservoir sits as a still, reflective presence in the landscape, providing a silent counterpoint to the busy, terrestrial hum of Commodore as it persists in the quiet corners of the plateau.

About This Commodore Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Commodore, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.713121, -78.943365. 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 Commodore includes the ZIP code (15729), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Indiana County (Indiana), and school district assignment (Purchase Line 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.
