This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Canfield, Ontario. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
Drag the map to pan to any area of Ontario or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Canfield and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.
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 Canfield.
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.

Canfield is a compact rural community in Haldimand, Ontario, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Canfield is located at 42.9753°N, 79.7514°W.
Canfield sits low upon the southern Ontario plateau, an expanse of level fields where the horizon feels wide and unencumbered. It lies 30.9 km south-south-east of Hamilton, ON (from Hamilton, ON: bearing 166°T), and is situated 8.4 km east of Haldimand County. The air here carries the scent of turned earth and drying hay, particularly at dusk when the light turns thin and amber, catching the sharp, straight lines of the fence rows. While the Grand River flows steadily about 7 km away, the land around Canfield remains defined by its agricultural reach and the quiet persistence of its open sky. Even the nearby Byng Island Conservation Area, situated 12 km distant, feels like a distant sanctuary of trees compared to the immediate, expansive openness that marks the character of the local geography. The economy of Canfield has long aligned with the cycles of the seasons, rooted in the fertility of the soil and the legacy of early settlers who cleared the dense timber to make way for grain and livestock. History here is found in the weathered wood of older barns and the persistence of crossroads that once served as vital links for the movement of regional goods. Life in Canfield moves with the deliberate pace of those who work the land, prioritizing the practicalities of the harvest and the maintenance of the homestead. There is a particular clarity to the mornings, when a heavy dew settles over the fields and the distant hum of machinery signals the start of another day in a place that values its solitude and its connection to the surrounding plains.

Detailed location data for Canfield includes the postal code (N1A), telephone area code (226, 249, 289, 343, 365, 382, 416, 437, 519, 548, 613, 647, 705, 742, 807, 905). These are among the most commonly searched location details for any Canadian city or town.
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 Canfield 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.
