How to Use This Martin, Tennessee Map

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

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.

The horizon stretches wide across open fields, occasionally broken by the gentle rise of distant terrain like Hickory Ridge, which stands as a silent sentinel nearly thirty miles away. Nearby, the waters of Cane Creek trace a slow, deliberate path through the landscape, offering a cool reprieve during the humid heat of midsummer afternoons. A short distance away, the surface of W F Baker Lake catches the shifting colors of the sky, mirroring the amber and bruised purple of a setting sun. The earth here feels ancient and heavy with potential, grounding the spirit in the steady, rhythmic cycle of the seasons. Deep within the earth of the Cypress Creek Bottom, the soil retains a damp, dark richness that has long nurtured the region.

Agriculture has served as the backbone for Martin for generations, rooting the local economy in the seasonal bounty of the surrounding fields. The arrival of the railroad once accelerated the growth of the local industry, transforming a modest settlement into a vital hub for trade and commerce.

The town maintains a steady pace, where the sound of academic inquiry blends with the mechanical hum of agricultural processing and local manufacturing.

Festival Park provides a central gathering space where the community honors its local traditions and fosters a sense of shared identity.

About This Martin Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Martin, Tennessee. Coordinates: 36.343396, -88.850338. 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 Martin includes the ZIP code (38237, 38238), telephone area code (901), county seat of Weakley County (Dresden), and school district assignment (Weakley County 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.
