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 Sheffield.
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.

Sheffield is a locality in Sunbury, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Sheffield is located at 45.8900°N, 66.3321°W.
Sheffield rests quietly along the fertile banks of the Saint John River, a landscape defined by the low, persistent rise of the Oak Point Ridge. It lies 11.7 km east-north-east of Oromocto, NB (from Oromocto, NB: bearing 66°T), and is situated 13.7 km east-north-east of Sunbury-York South. The air here holds the damp, cool weight of the water, a stillness that settles over the fields as the light fades into a bruised violet across the horizon. Beyond the immediate reach of the shoreline, the landscape opens toward the Portobello Creek National Wildlife Area, where the marshlands offer a sanctuary for migratory birds and the slow, deliberate movement of seasonal cycles. Within this basin, the proximity of Cowperthwaite Lake adds a quiet luster to the terrain, reflecting the expansive sky and the muted greens of the surrounding lowlands. The history of Sheffield remains deeply anchored in the rhythm of the river, which has long dictated the patterns of local agriculture and settlement. Generations have worked these silty, nutrient-rich soils, favoring a life defined by the harvest and the steady, predictable demands of the land. The economy of Sheffield persists through this connection to the earth, maintaining a character shaped by rural tradition and a profound, quiet independence. Even today, the pace of existence follows the seasonal ebb and flow of the Saint John River, ensuring that the identity of the people remains as constant and enduring as the current itself.
Sheffield s'étire avec une tranquille noblesse sur la crête Oak Point, dominant les terres basses où la rivière Saint John dessine ses courbes apaisées. Cette terre, façonnée par les cycles anciens de l'agriculture, conserve une mémoire vive dans ses sols fertiles, héritage des colons qui ont défriché ces rives dès le dix-huitième siècle. À quelques kilomètres, le lac Cowperthwaite et la réserve faunique de Portobello Creek National Wildlife Area dictent le rythme d'une nature souveraine, offrant aux oiseaux migrateurs et aux observateurs patients un refuge d'une rare intensité. Lorsque le soleil décline, une lumière dorée sature l'atmosphère, soulignant la texture rugueuse des champs et la silhouette des fermes qui marquent l'horizon de Sheffield. L'air y possède une fraîcheur limpide, chargée de l'humidité du fleuve, rappelant aux habitants la puissance silencieuse des eaux qui bordent leurs habitations. Ici, la vie s'accorde aux mouvements lents de la terre, dans une constance qui ignore l'agitation des grands centres. Les gestes quotidiens, hérités d'une longue tradition de labeur et de respect pour les cycles naturels, perpétuent une identité singulière, forgée dans la rencontre entre la solidité de la crête Oak Point et l'immensité changeante de la rivière Saint John.

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 Sheffield 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.
