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 Chester.
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.

Chester is a locality in Albert, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Chester is located at 45.7791°N, 64.7312°W.
Chester rests along the Atlantic coast, where the land rises toward the slopes of Casey Hill to catch the salt-heavy air rolling in from the tides. It lies 17.6 km south-south-west of Fundy Albert, NB (from Fundy Albert, NB: bearing 200°T), and is situated 4.1 km north of Riverside-Albert. The terrain here holds a persistent dampness, a quiet damp that clings to the spruce and cedar until the late afternoon sun pulls a pale, shimmering warmth from the needles. Within this coastal reach, the Shepody River carves its path through the lowlands some 6 km away, while the deeper stillness of Stanyard Lake waits 7 km inland. Those who walk the perimeter of the coast often look toward the distant horizon, where the expansive reach of Parc national du Canada Fundy begins 30 km to the west, marking a wilder, more rugged transition in the topography. The life of Chester follows the seasonal shifts of the Atlantic, rooted in long-standing traditions of harvest and the slow, deliberate work of those who labor near the water. Chester maintains a character defined by its proximity to the tides, where the economy has historically favored the bounty of the coast and the resilience required to endure the winter gales. Families have kept their footing on this ground for generations, marking time by the rising and falling of the bay and the changing color of the marsh grasses. Even now, the stillness of the morning is punctuated by the sharp, metallic tang of the sea, a reminder that the land and the water have never truly been separate in the daily affairs of the people living under the wide, grey-blue sky.
Chester s’éveille sous une lumière argentée qui semble stagner sur les pentes de la colline Casey, là où l’air marin de la côte atlantique vient saturer les terres d’une humidité persistante. Dans ce relief modelé par des siècles d’activités agricoles et forestières, le quotidien s’ordonne selon la rudesse et la beauté de ce littoral néo-brunswickois. À six kilomètres de là, la rivière Shepody charrie ses eaux troubles vers les marées, tandis que le lac Stanyard, à sept kilomètres, offre un miroir immobile aux arbres qui le bordent. La présence, à trente kilomètres, du Parc national du Canada Fundy influence le climat et les courants d’air qui balaient les champs, conférant aux journées une tonalité changeante, parfois sombre, souvent vive. Chester conserve ce caractère de terre de labeur, où les habitants adaptent leurs gestes aux caprices d’un ciel changeant et à la proximité de la mer. Les traditions s’y transmettent par une habitude du silence et une connaissance intime des chemins qui serpentent entre les boisés et les escarpements. Chaque soir, le crépuscule glisse lentement sur le sol, effaçant les contours des clôtures et des vieux bâtiments, laissant Chester reposer dans une quiétude minérale, loin des agitations du monde moderne, sous la surveillance immuable des horizons côtiers.

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.
Location data for Chester is sourced from the Canadian Geographical Names Database (CGN), Natural Resources Canada, and verified by coordinates rather than name matching alone. GPS coordinates, province, administrative location and place type are shown in the information panel above.
