Explore Lannon, Wisconsin, 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 Lannon, Wisconsin. 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 Wisconsin 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 Lannon.
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.

Lannon emerges from the Wisconsin landscape as a place defined by the quiet endurance of its stone and the reach of its surrounding woods. It lies 2.9 miles east-northeast of Sussex, WI (from Sussex, WI: bearing 73°T), and is situated 9.9 miles north-northeast of Waukesha. The terrain here holds a subtle, rugged character, marked by the presence of Menomonee Park which anchors the local topography with its sprawling, natural expanse. Five miles from the center of Lannon, the expansive surface of Amy Bell Lake captures the shifting light of the sky, reflecting a pale, silver clarity that changes with the passing of the seasons. To the west, the Fox River moves with a slow, deliberate pace just one mile away, carving a modest path through the earth that has long served as a quiet companion to the life of the region. On clear days, the distant silhouette of Holy Hill rises eleven miles off, a singular point of elevation that anchors the horizon and gives a sense of scale to the wide, inland plains.
Lannon carries a history deeply rooted in the extraction of its own geology, as the local economy was long shaped by the robust limestone quarries that provided the foundation for much of the region’s early architecture. This labor-intensive heritage remains visible in the sturdy, pale masonry that appears in older buildings and foundations throughout the neighborhood. The rhythm of daily life in Lannon reflects a blend of industrial grit and the steady, unpretentious pace of the upper Midwest, where the transition from work to evening often settles into the familiar comfort of local gathering spots. There is an enduring quality to the light here, particularly in the late afternoon when the sun catches the dust of the quarries and the leaves of the hardwood trees, casting long, golden shadows that seem to hold the land in a moment of stillness. Residents maintain a connection to the quiet, open spaces that define this part of the state, finding a persistent, understated beauty in the way the seasons color the local woods and the quiet, inland waters.

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.
