Gazetteer Map Service

The Atlas of Canada's Gazetteer Map Service is an Internet-based service designed to provide Web site developers direct access to the Atlas of Canada's Find a Place maps. The service generates a URL linking directly to a map showing the location of any of the gazetteer's 47 000 place and geographical feature names. This selection of names comes from the Geographical Names Board of Canada's Concise Gazetteer. The complete database can be searched at the Geographical Names Web site.

List of Instructions:

Step 1 - Enter the place (for example, Alberta, Halifax) or feature name (for example, Ottawa River, Hudson Bay) and click the arrow symbol. A search will be made of the database for the selected name. To refine the search, other options can be selected if desired.
Step 2 - Select the appropriate name from the search results list provided.
Step 3 - Copy the URL and use it as a link in your Web page from your text or image.

To use this service, please select: Gazetteer Map Service.
