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 D'Alembert.
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.

D'Alembert is a administrative sector in Rouyn-Noranda; Abitibi-Témiscamingue, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. D'Alembert is located at 48.3611°N, 79.0167°W.
D'Alembert occupies a rugged expanse within the Collines Waite, where the northern light settles heavily against the dark, resilient ridges of the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region. It lies 13.8 km north of Rouyn-Noranda, QC (from Rouyn-Noranda, QC: bearing 0°T), and is situated 22.4 km south-east of Duparquet. The low sun catches the edges of the forest, casting long shadows that emphasize the ancient, rocky character of the terrain surrounding the settlement. Life here moves with the quiet persistence of the seasons, shaped by a proximity to the natural world that feels both immediate and vast. Lac D'Alembert rests nearby, its surface often mirroring the stillness of the surrounding trees, while the distant, winding path of the Rivière Duprat provides a slow, steady pulse to the landscape. To the north, the sprawling presence of Parc national d'Aiguebelle marks the horizon, serving as a reminder of the wilder, undisturbed expanses that define this corner of the country. The history of D'Alembert is linked to the broader industrial pulse of Rouyn-Noranda, where the extraction of mineral wealth once dictated the growth and direction of local life. While the economy has shifted over the decades, the bedrock of the region remains rooted in a long tradition of resourcefulness and hard work. Residents navigate their days with a practical focus, maintaining homes and livelihoods that acknowledge the harsh winters and the brief, brilliant summers of the north. D'Alembert retains a distinct, modest identity, anchored by the people who continue to build their lives among the outcrops and clearings of the Canadian Shield.
D'Alembert s'étire avec une patience minérale sur les flancs accidentés des Collines Waite, là où la terre d'Abitibi-Témiscamingue révèle sa rudesse et sa noblesse silencieuse. Sous le ciel large qui semble peser sur les crêtes, le paysage se déploie dans une rigueur géologique façonnée par l'effort des hommes venus extraire la richesse du sous-sol, transformant la forêt en une existence de labeur et de persévérance. À quelques kilomètres, le Lac D'Alembert capte les dernières lueurs du crépuscule, offrant un miroir immobile à la sylve environnante, tandis que la Rivière Duprat poursuit son cheminement discret à travers les terres basses. Plus loin, le relief s'efface vers les horizons lointains du Parc national d'Aiguebelle, soulignant l'isolement majestueux de D'Alembert. Le quotidien y est rythmé par la présence constante de la roche et le souffle frais des vents du nord qui balaient les champs autrefois défrichés. Ici, chaque bâtisse, chaque chemin qui serpente entre les collines porte en lui le souvenir d'une colonisation opiniâtre, ancrée dans la roche dure et le désir de bâtir malgré les hivers longs. La lumière déclinante accentue les contrastes du terrain, révélant une beauté austère qui appartient exclusivement à cet espace de terre québécoise.

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.
