How to Use This Kilgore, Texas Map

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

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.

Kilgore emerged as a transformative center of activity following the discovery of massive subterranean reserves that fundamentally altered the regional economy. The extraction of these resources fueled a period of rapid development, establishing a foundation that persists in the industrial character of the area to this day. While the fervor of the early boom years has matured, the local economy remains anchored by the technical expertise and infrastructure built to support energy production. The quiet labor of oilfield equipment often hums in the distance, a reminder of the industry that once drew thousands of hopeful travelers to these plains. Even as the seasons shift the colors of the woods, the legacy of this enterprise informs the way the inhabitants organize their daily pursuits.

Kilgore maintains a cultural identity shaped by a blend of industrious spirit and a deep appreciation for the quietude of the piney woods.
