How to Use This Lebanon, South Dakota Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lebanon, South Dakota. 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 Dakota 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 Lebanon.

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.

Lebanon occupies a vast, open expanse where the horizon stretches into a thin, pale line of perpetual transition. It lies 56.2 miles north-northeast of Pierre, SD (from Pierre, SD: bearing 30°T), and is situated 45.5 miles southeast of Mobridge. The earth here is a muted palette of tawny grasses and dark, turned soil, shaped by the slow, persistent work of the wind that sweeps across the high plains. Six miles away, the quiet course of Okobojo Creek carves a shallow, meandering path through the terrain, providing a rare vein of moisture in the otherwise dry, expansive prairie. To the west, the distant silhouettes of the Bald Mountains occasionally sharpen against a twilight sky, marking the boundary where the flat land begins its long, slow ascent toward the rugged western topography. The air carries a crisp, mineral quality, and the light at dusk settles with a heavy, golden stillness that seems to suspend the very motion of the grass.

Lebanon persists as a quiet node of agricultural endurance, defined by the seasonal cycles of planting and harvest that dictate the rhythm of the local economy. The land surrounding the area remains largely devoted to the cultivation of wheat and grains, a practice that has anchored the livelihoods of inhabitants for generations. Nearby, the Potter County Waterfowl Production Area offers a sanctuary for migratory birds, serving as a reminder of the wilder, untouched character of the plains that exist just beyond the reach of the plow. While the pace of life remains slow and deliberate, the presence of the distant Green Lake provides a subtle, cooling reprieve for those who venture out to witness the vast, unencumbered sky. Everything about Lebanon speaks to a life lived in accordance with the weather and the stubborn, fertile resilience of the soil.

About This Lebanon Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lebanon, South Dakota. Coordinates: 45.069702, -99.769837. 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 Lebanon includes the ZIP code (57455), telephone area code (605), county seat of Potter County (Gettysburg), and school district assignment (Hoven School District 53-2).

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.
