2014 Map of Upland

About this map

Upland sits at the intersection of rural agriculture and northern Franklin Co, marking a transition from the plains into the rolling drainage of the Little Blue River. This 2014 survey captures a landscape defined by an orderly grid of section roads like Ne-4 and Ne-10, which navigate the draws and ridges shaped by the W Br Thompson Cr. The town of Upland itself is the primary settlement, supported by local infrastructure such as the Upland Cem and residential streets like S Greenfield Ave. Significant water management features, including Olson Reservoir and Bertrand Reservoir, emphasize the importance of water storage in this section of the Great Plains. The boundary between Kearney Co and Franklin Co bisects the northern reach of the map, illustrating the administrative divisions of this Nebraska heartland.
