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 Saint-Ignace.
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.

Saint-Ignace is a locality in Kent, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a town. Saint-Ignace is located at 46.6977°N, 65.0792°W.
The low-lying fields around Saint-Ignace stretch toward the horizon with a quiet, persistent gravity, anchored by the slow, dark pulse of the Kouchibouguacis River. It lies 16.4 km west of Beaurivage, NB (from Beaurivage, NB: bearing 280°T), and is situated 14.7 km east-south-east of Acadieville. The land here holds a particular stillness, especially near The Horseback, where the terrain rises slightly to catch the salt-tinged breeze moving inland from the coast. To the west, the water of Lac à Jos-Wilfrid sits tucked into the woods, reflecting the grey-blue sky like a sliver of polished stone, while the wider wilderness of Parc national du Canada Kouchibouguac waits twenty kilometres to the north, a vast refuge for the quiet life of the woods and marshes. At dusk, the light loses its sharp edge, turning the grasses along the riverbank into a soft, blurred bronze that seems to hold the heat of the day long after the sun has dipped below the trees. The history of Saint-Ignace gathers in the persistence of those who worked the soil and the timber, carving a life from the dense, damp woods of Kent. This economy has long drawn its vitality from the land and the river, relying on the steady, seasonal work of forestry and agriculture that defines the daily movements of the people. Houses stand with a sturdy, unpretentious posture, their windows watching over lanes that have seen generations move between the fields and the woodlots. There is a weight to the silence here, a reminder of the deep, enduring roots of the families who built their homes in the shelter of the river valley, finding their own way of belonging to a landscape that demands both patience and a hardened hand.
Saint-Ignace s'étire sur les terres basses de Kent, là où la lumière décline avec une douceur presque irréelle sur les méandres de la rivière Kouchibouguacis. Les habitants, héritiers d'une ténacité acadienne forgée par le travail de la terre et la proximité des bois, observent le passage des heures près de The Horseback, cette élévation du terrain qui sculpte l'horizon comme une crête silencieuse. À quelques kilomètres, le Lac à Jos-Wilfrid demeure une étendue d'eau immobile, miroir sombre reflétant le ciel changeant de cette partie du pays. L'air y possède une texture particulière, chargée d'humidité végétale et du souffle salin qui remonte, porté par les vents, vers l'intérieur des terres depuis le Parc national du Canada Kouchibouguac situé à une vingtaine de kilomètres. Saint-Ignace conserve cette simplicité des lieux où le quotidien s'accorde au rythme des récoltes et au silence des forêts environnantes. Ici, les chemins de terre semblent encore garder le souvenir des charrettes d'autrefois, tandis que les façades des maisons, modestes et droites, affrontent les frimas avec une dignité tranquille. La vie s'écoule sans hâte, entre les tourbières et les champs cultivés, dans une quiétude que seul le cri d'un oiseau migrateur vient parfois troubler, rappelant à tous que la nature impose ici sa loi souveraine.

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.
