About this map

Upland serves as the central hub of this South Central Nebraska landscape, situated near the intersection of Belfield St and several key rural routes. The town’s social and civic infrastructure is anchored by the Upland Post Office, while the Upland Cemetery lies just to the south, providing a critical reference for genealogical research in Franklin County.

The surrounding geography is defined by a network of drainage and water management, including the West Branch Thompson Creek and the Little Blue River in the northeast. Man-made features like Olson Reservoir and Bertrand Reservoir, with their respective structures at Olson Dam and Bertrand Dam, illustrate the agricultural reliance on water storage in this section of the Great Plains. The grid of section roads, such as A Rd and B Rd, organizes the vast agricultural tracts that dominate the terrain.
