Explore Woodsboro, Texas, 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 Woodsboro, 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 Woodsboro.
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.

Woodsboro occupies a flat, expansive stretch of South Texas prairie where the horizon remains wide and unencumbered by anything but the silhouettes of distant grain silos and transmission lines. It lies 22.1 miles northwest of Rockport, TX (from Rockport, TX: bearing 313°T), and is situated 5.4 miles south-southwest of Refugio. The land here is defined by a deep, quiet persistence, characterized by the dark, fertile soils that define the local topography and the subtle, shallow depressions like Kaiser Flat that hold the heavy rains of spring. Vegetation is sparse and hardy, consisting of mesquite thickets and golden grasses that shimmer under a relentless, unrelenting sun. Just a mile away, the quiet course of Monkey Slough carves a subtle path through the earth, a thin vein of riparian growth that offers a brief respite from the sun-drenched openness of the surrounding plains.
Woodsboro grew from the ambition of those who recognized the potential in this vast, agricultural expanse, establishing a rhythm of life that remains tied to the cycles of the harvest and the persistent demands of the oil patch. The local economy maintains a steady, industrious pulse, echoing the labor of generations who shaped the fields and managed the extraction of resources that sustain the region. Residents often gather for quiet reflection or community observance at Woodsboro Veteran's Memorial Park, a place that anchors the spirit of the people amidst the vastness. Though Mustang Lake lies eleven miles away, the identity of Woodsboro is forged in the immediate, terrestrial reality of the soil and the sky, where the passage of time is marked not by tides or changing seasons of the deep woods, but by the slow, deliberate work of hands upon the land.

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.
