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 Melanson Settlement.
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.

Melanson Settlement is a locality in Westmorland, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Melanson Settlement is located at 46.0831°N, 64.6438°W.
Melanson Settlement rests as a quiet presence along the Atlantic coast, defined by the modest elevation of the nearby Scotts Hill. It lies 12.2 km east of Moncton, NB (from Moncton, NB: bearing 99°T), and is situated 3.5 km east of Dieppe. The air here carries a sharp, saline clarity, especially as the late afternoon light flattens against the earth and turns the grasses a pale, bruised gold. Melanson Settlement Lake sits just a kilometer away, offering a still, dark mirror to the sky that anchors the immediate horizon. While the Memramcook River flows with a steady, distant purpose some six kilometers off, the landscape around Melanson Settlement remains dominated by the stubborn, scrubby resilience of coastal flora. The terrain here does not rush; it waits, holding the damp chill of the maritime climate in the hollows of the soil and the heavy, brine-scented mist that often clings to the rising slopes of the coast. Life in Melanson Settlement moves in accordance with the seasonal shifts of the Atlantic, maintaining a character shaped by the practical demands of the land. The economy has historically looked toward the small-scale yields of the region, where the work of the day is measured by the wind’s direction and the turning of the tides. Families here have long occupied the periphery of the coast, finding a particular, austere beauty in the way the frost settles on the fences during the long, hushed winters. There is a persistent, quiet industry in the way the residents tend to their properties, a habit of maintenance that keeps the settlement sturdy against the encroaching salt air. Even as the modern world presses inward, Melanson Settlement retains a sense of isolation, where the primary dialogue is one between the inhabitants and the unyielding, salt-washed elements of their immediate surroundings.
Melanson Settlement s'éveille sous une lumière atlantique qui dépose une douceur argentée sur ses terres fertiles, héritières d'une ténacité acadienne forgée par l'histoire. À proximité, la colline Scotts se dresse comme une sentinelle tranquille, observant le calme des champs où le labeur des générations a sculpté les contours d'une existence paisible. Le souffle marin remonte les terres, modulant la température et offrant à Melanson Settlement cette atmosphère singulière où le silence n'est rompu que par le murmure lointain de la rivière Memramcook, dont le tracé sinueux trace une frontière naturelle à quelques kilomètres de là. À peine plus proche, le lac Melanson Settlement reflète le passage des heures, capturant l'éclat changeant d'un ciel vaste qui semble s'étirer à l'infini au-dessus des foyers. La vie ici suit le rythme lent des travaux agricoles, une pratique transmise avec respect, maintenant vivace cette identité propre aux gens de la région de Westmorland. Dans cet espace où la terre rencontre l'influence des marées, chaque chemin de terre et chaque horizon dégagé disent la persistance d'une culture qui a su apprivoiser le sol, trouvant dans la simplicité du paysage une raison suffisante de s'enraciner durablement.

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 Melanson Settlement 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.
