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 Nixon.
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.

Nixon is a locality in Albert, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Nixon is located at 45.9521°N, 64.9357°W.
Nixon rests quietly amidst the rugged, folded terrain of Albert, where the earth rises in subtle ridges near the Lime Rocks Hill. It lies 19.5 km south-south-west of Moncton, NB (from Moncton, NB: bearing 213°T), and is situated 11.9 km south-east of Salisbury. The air here holds a distinct, cool clarity, especially as the late afternoon light catches the limestone outcrops, turning the grey stone into a soft, glowing silver. While the Petitcodiac River flows some 11 km away, its presence is felt in the moisture that lingers in the valleys, feeding the dense growth that defines the character of the land. Further out, the sprawling expanse of Parc national du Canada Fundy sits 38 km away, anchoring the wider region in a sense of wild, protected permanence. Life in Nixon follows the quiet cycles of the seasons, shaped by a history that values persistence over haste. The local economy persists through a grounded relationship with the land, reflecting the steady traditions of those who have long worked the soil and timber of this Albert landscape. Throughout the day, the stillness is broken only by the work of the season, creating a life that feels authentic to its geography. Nixon maintains a steady, reserved dignity, its character defined by the stark beauty of the nearby hills and the deep, persistent silence that settles over the fields when the wind dies down.
Nixon s’étire avec une patience minérale au pied de la colline Lime Rocks, là où le sol semble conserver la mémoire des anciens travaux de la terre et des premières installations laborieuses. Dans cette zone du Nouveau-Brunswick, la lumière déclinante du soir accroche les reliefs avec une douceur particulière, révélant la texture rugueuse des terres agricoles qui entourent Nixon. L’atmosphère y est empreinte d’un silence attentif, à peine troublé par le souffle du vent qui remonte des terres basses. À onze kilomètres de distance, la rivière Petitcodiac poursuit son cheminement imperturbable, influençant subtilement l’humidité ambiante et le tempérament de la végétation environnante. Bien que le Parc national du Canada Fundy s’étende à trente-huit kilomètres, le paysage immédiat se concentre sur l’intimité des collines et le rythme lent d’une vie tournée vers le cycle des récoltes. Les résidents observent ce relief familier, habitués à la silhouette protectrice de la colline Lime Rocks qui délimite l’horizon quotidien. Ici, le passé ne se raconte pas dans les livres, mais se perçoit dans l’inclinaison d’une clôture ou dans la manière dont le ciel s’assombrit sur les champs, offrant aux habitants une présence apaisante, presque immuable, loin des agitations du monde moderne.

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 Nixon 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.
