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 Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Centreton.
Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, 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 — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue 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.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Centreton is a locality in Kings, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Centreton is located at 45.4357°N, 66.0844°W.
Centreton rests upon the rugged, salt-sprayed edge of the Atlantic coast, where the earth rises into the prominence of Soup Plate Hill. It lies 19.9 km north of Saint John, NB (from Saint John, NB: bearing 350°T), and is situated 5.6 km south-east of Browns Flat. The terrain falls away toward the Saint John River, carrying the heavy, brine-scented air that clings to the shoreline as evening light turns the water into polished slate. A short distance away, the quiet basin of Sancton Dam Lake holds a stillness that contrasts with the distant, thrumming energy of Silver Falls. The land here feels ancient and heavy, shaped by the push and pull of tides that dictate the pace of every season. Centreton maintains a quiet persistence, its identity anchored in the traditional industries that first drew people to this demanding coastline. Families here have long read the shifting moods of the Saint John River, finding their livelihood in the harvesting of the water and the cultivation of the surrounding slopes. Life in Centreton follows the rise of the sun and the turning of the tide, a steady existence defined by the practical demands of a coastal life. The traditions of the place are simple, passed down through the generations that have watched the horizon from the heights of Soup Plate Hill, finding beauty in the stark, unadorned endurance of the Atlantic landscape.
Centreton s'étire avec une patience minérale sur la côte atlantique, là où le relief s'incline pour épouser les formes de la colline Soup Plate. Les habitants de Centreton connaissent le murmure constant de la rivière Saint John, dont les eaux froides et sombres dictent depuis toujours le rythme des journées. À deux kilomètres de là, le lac Sancton Dam retient une clarté immobile sous le ciel changeant, tandis qu'à seize kilomètres, le fracas lointain des chutes Silver rappelle la puissance indomptable des terres environnantes. La lumière du crépuscule s'attarde longuement sur les champs en pente, révélant une terre façonnée par le labeur agricole et le vent salé qui remonte du rivage. Les demeures, dispersées avec une simplicité volontaire, semblent s'agripper au sol pour défier les assauts des brumes marines. Ici, l'existence se mesure au glissement des marées et aux variations subtiles du courant fluvial. Chaque saison modifie la texture de l'horizon, imposant aux résidents une vigilance tranquille, un respect profond pour cette géographie austère où chaque sentier raconte la persévérance des premiers occupants et la rigueur de la vie au bord de l'eau.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS 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.
