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 Madran.
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.

Madran is a locality in Gloucester, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a town. Madran is located at 47.8170°N, 65.7722°W.
Madran rests where the low, salt-heavy breath of the Atlantic coast meets the cooling shadows cast by the nearby Tetagouche Hill. It lies 13.9 km north-north-west of Belle-Baie, NB (from Belle-Baie, NB: bearing 338°T), and is situated 5.6 km north-west of Petit-Rocher. The land here leans toward the water, shaped by the presence of the Rivière aux Ormes, which carves a quiet, persistent path through the terrain. In the soft light of dusk, the horizon blurs, turning the coastal air into a silvered haze that settles over the trees and fields. Ten kilometers away, the still depths of Belledune Lake hold the reflection of the sky, offering a stark, glassy contrast to the moving currents of the river. Life in Madran follows the steady, predictable turning of the seasons, grounded in the practicalities of the northern climate and the rugged demands of the landscape. The economy has historically looked toward the land and the sea for its sustenance, with residents maintaining a deep familiarity with the cycle of the tides and the shifting temperament of the woods. Local traditions prioritize a quiet self-reliance, where the work of the day is measured by the clarity of the air and the strength of the wind coming off the coast. Even as the modern world encroaches, Madran retains an atmosphere of concentration, as if the land itself is listening for the next change in the weather.
Madran déploie ses horizons sur la côte atlantique, là où le ciel bas semble se déposer avec une douceur mélancolique sur les terres fertiles du Nouveau-Brunswick. À proximité immédiate de la colline Tetagouche, les brumes matinales s'étirent sur les rives de la Rivière aux Ormes, offrant aux habitants un paysage baigné d'une clarté argentée qui transforme chaque lever de soleil en une promesse silencieuse. La géographie singulière de Madran, marquée par cette présence fluviale et la proximité du lac Belledune situé à dix kilomètres, façonne une existence rythmée par la rudesse des vents marins et la persévérance des familles acadiennes. L'économie locale, portée par une longue tradition de labeur lié à la terre et aux ressources environnantes, conserve une dignité austère que le passage des heures ne saurait entamer. Les résidents observent le déclin du jour sur les pentes douces qui bordent la Rivière aux Ormes, tandis que l'air, chargé d'iode et de souvenirs, porte en lui l'écho des générations ayant domestiqué ce sol. Ici, la lumière crépusculaire souligne les contours de la colline Tetagouche, révélant une beauté dépouillée, presque secrète, qui définit l'âme de cette contrée côtière où l'histoire se lit dans la patience du regard et la solidité des demeures.

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.
