Explore Wedgefield, South Carolina, 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 Wedgefield, South Carolina. 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 South Carolina 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 Wedgefield.
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.

Wedgefield occupies a quiet expanse of the South Carolina interior, characterized by sandy soils and the persistent, low-slung horizon of the midlands. It lies 22.5 miles south of Florence, SC (from Florence, SC: bearing 182°T), and is situated 1.0 miles west of Lake City. The landscape around Wedgefield unfolds in a series of subtle depressions and pine-studded rises, where the air often carries the heavy, resinous scent of needles warming under a midday sun. Just a mile away, the dark, slow-moving waters of Camp Branch cut through the sandy earth, providing a vital, shadowed artery for the local flora. While the distant, hazy silhouette of Big Sandy Ridge occasionally marks the far western boundary of the region, the immediate terrain remains dominated by the modest, level fields and dense woodlands that define this slice of the state. Within the center of the locality, Kennedy Park offers a focal point of greenery, where the light at dusk filters through the canopy in long, amber slats, cooling the day’s residual heat.
Wedgefield maintains a rhythm dictated by the agricultural heritage of the surrounding plains, where life persists with a deliberate and unadorned focus. History here is written in the quiet endurance of the land, shaped long ago by the clearing of timber and the slow expansion of inland farms that once relied upon the nearby fertile basins, such as the depression of Rutledge Bay, to sustain their seasonal yields. Though industry has evolved, the economy remains rooted in the character of the soil and the industrious nature of its people, who navigate a daily existence far removed from the bustle of the coast. Residents find a particular stillness in the vicinity of Matthews Pond, where the water mirrors the shifting clouds and provides a place of reflection for those accustomed to the inland pace. The legacy of the area is not found in grand monuments, but in the persistent, quiet cultivation of a life that values the shade of the pines and the steady, predictable turning of the seasons.

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.
