How to Use This Tatum, Texas Map

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

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.

Tatum emerges from the dense, pine-shadowed horizon of East Texas as a quiet expanse where the light filters through tall timber to dapple the reddish, iron-rich earth. It lies 18.0 miles south-southwest of Marshall, TX (from Marshall, TX: bearing 209°T), and is situated 8.4 miles east-southeast of Lake Cherokee. Tatum Creek meanders just a mile from the center, a slow-moving artery that feeds the surrounding woodland and defines the drainage of this humid, inland basin. To the west, the subtle rise of The Sand Hills breaks the flatness of the terrain, offering a slight elevation that catches the golden, heavy heat of late afternoons. Four miles away, Martin Creek Lake State Park serves as a sanctuary where the Martin Creek Lake Trail winds through thickets of hardwoods and pine, marking the boundary where the stillness of the forest meets the reflective, dark surface of Martin Lake.

Economic life in Tatum has long been tethered to the pulse of the earth, moving from the steady rhythm of agricultural cycles to the industrial demands of the energy sector. The legacy of the region remains visible in the quiet persistence of its inhabitants, who balance the daily operations of local industry with the slow, deliberate pace of life in the piney woods. On weekends, the proximity of Martin Lake draws those seeking the shade of the trees and the quiet, humid air that settles over the landscape like a veil. Education and community identity are anchored by the local schools, which serve as the central gathering points for Friday night traditions that mirror the broader character of this inland stretch of Texas.
