Explore Orme, Tennessee, 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 Orme, 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 Orme.
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.

Orme holds the quiet, heavy stillness of a place defined by the slow erosion of limestone and the persistent carving of the earth. It lies 27.7 miles south-southwest of Grundy, TN (from Grundy, TN: bearing 194°T), and is situated 5.7 miles west of South Pittsburg. Dry Creek cuts a narrow, shadowed path through the rugged terrain of Old Shop Hollow, its waters often reduced to a shallow, wandering ribbon over smooth stones during the long, humid afternoons. The surrounding landscape rises in broken, rocky ridges that speak to the ancient geological shifts of the region, while the dense, tangled canopy of the Franklin-Marion State Forest guards the horizon in a deep, unchanging green. Light here seems to catch on the jagged limestone outcrops at dusk, turning the gray stone into a soft, bruised violet that lingers long after the sun has retreated behind the trees.
Orme retains the skeletal remains of a coal-mining legacy, a past marked by the deep, silent shafts that once dictated the pulse of every working day. While the clamor of the mines has long since faded into a quiet, agrarian isolation, the remnants of that industry still color the local character, manifesting in a stoic, self-reliant independence among those who remain. Visitors may find a lingering connection to the distant past at the nearby Russell Cave National Monument, where the earth reveals the layered footprints of early inhabitants who sheltered in the hollows. Life in Orme moves with a deliberate, unadorned pace, far removed from the frantic energy of the distant Appalachian Mountains, favoring the slow cultivation of the land and the quiet maintenance of a life lived in the shadow of historical industry.

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.
