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 Développement-Gauthier.
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.

Développement-Gauthier is a residential area in Cap-Santé; Portneuf, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Développement-Gauthier is located at 46.6739°N, 71.7894°W.
Développement-Gauthier rests upon a quiet reach of land where the earth leans toward the expansive St. Lawrence. It lies 4.0 km west of Donnacona, QC (from Donnacona, QC: bearing 272°T), and is situated 11.7 km south-west of Pont-Rouge. The air here carries the cool, damp breath of the Rivière Jacques-Cartier, which draws life toward the horizon, while the nearby Coteau à Jess provides a subtle elevation that defines the local horizon. Light at dusk settles heavily over the grasses, turning the fields into shades of muted ochre and slate before the shadows deepen. Beyond the immediate terrain, the Réserve écologique de Pointe-Platon stands as a sanctuary just four kilometers away, preserving a stillness that seems to seep into the very borders of the settlement. Even the distant Lac Henri, lying thirteen kilometers inland, exerts a silent, gravitational pull on the moisture that clings to the evening air, grounding Développement-Gauthier in a landscape defined by the persistent presence of water. Life in Développement-Gauthier reflects the long-standing agricultural and maritime character of Cap-Santé, where the land has been shaped by generations who understood the value of the river’s edge. The local economy persists with a steady, pragmatic focus, drawing on the resources that have historically sustained the region’s development and growth. Residents move through their days with an awareness of the changing tides and the seasonal shifts that dictate the pace of work in such a proximity to the St. Lawrence. While many look toward the future, the character of the settlement remains anchored in its connection to the river, a quiet continuity that persists despite the modern demands of the surrounding Portneuf region.
Développement-Gauthier s'étire avec une sérénité singulière le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le fleuve impose son souffle puissant et ses vastes horizons changeants. À proximité de Coteau à Jess, le terrain s'incline doucement vers les eaux courantes de la Rivière Jacques-Cartier, dont le courant constant rythme la vie de ceux qui habitent ces terres fertiles. Le regard, porté vers l'intérieur des terres, rencontre la présence apaisante de la Réserve écologique de Pointe-Platon, située à seulement quatre kilomètres, tandis que le Lac Henri demeure une présence discrète, niché à une distance de treize kilomètres. Développement-Gauthier porte en lui cette terre de Portneuf où les boisés rencontrent les terres agricoles, façonnées par une histoire modeste et laborieuse. Lorsque le crépuscule descend sur les berges, une lumière dorée souligne les contours des champs et des demeures, révélant la texture d'un sol riche que les générations ont su cultiver. L'air, chargé d'une humidité légère provenant du Saint-Laurent, transporte les murmures de la nature environnante, rappelant que chaque parcelle ici possède sa propre gravité. Ce cadre, à la fois austère et accueillant, offre une quiétude rare, où le passage du jour vers la nuit semble suspendre les préoccupations du monde, laissant place à une harmonie pure entre le ciel, le fleuve et les rives protégées.
