Topographic Mapping

Community Mapping – (Large Scale)

Provides detailed mapping, from aerial photography, of nearly all Municipalities and surrounding areas with the exception of the Cities of St. John’s and Mount Pearl. There are 3100 maps at 1:2500 scale, and 283 maps at 1:5000 scale. Since 1991, 1792 new maps have been produced in vector digital format as collected in the stereo plotted. In addition 335 of the existing maps were converted to vector digital format. All of the vector data is fully structured for GIS applications.

In order to have complete coverage of all large scale base maps for GIS applications, 1800 of the older paper maps are available in an unstructured vector digital format. These unstructured maps can be used as a backdrop image in a GIS application. The maps are registered to the provincial grid reference system.
