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 Place-des-Îles.
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.

Place-des-Îles is a residential area in Saint-Lambert-de-Lauzon; La Nouvelle-Beauce, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Place-des-Îles is located at 46.6278°N, 71.2344°W.
Place-des-Îles anchors itself along the steady, northward pull of the Rivière Chaudière, where the land yields to the river’s persistent carving of the Le Cap banks. It lies 14.5 km south of Lévis, QC (from Lévis, QC: bearing 178°T), and is situated 11.4 km west-north-west of Saint-Isidore. The horizon here holds the quiet weight of the Quebec landscape, marked by the proximity of Lac à Wagner sitting four kilometers distant, while the distant, rushing presence of Chutes de la Chaudière defines the regional topography ten kilometers downstream. At dusk, the light catches the silt-heavy currents of the river, turning the water into a dark, burnished ribbon that reflects the shifting moods of the sky above the valley. The history of Place-des-Îles draws its strength from the agricultural heritage of La Nouvelle-Beauce, where the fertile soil of Saint-Lambert-de-Lauzon has long supported a steady, industrious life. While the local economy remains rooted in the rhythm of the land and the influence of the river, the residents maintain a character shaped by the cyclical demands of the seasons and the enduring presence of the water. Daily life persists with a quiet focus, whether tending to the fields or navigating the paths near the riverbanks, where the air carries a crisp, cool clarity that sharpens the edges of the afternoon. This persistence defines the identity of Place-des-Îles, grounding its people in a landscape that demands respect for the natural forces that have shaped its course.
Place-des-Îles s'étire avec une patience minérale le long du Le Cap, là où le courant de la Rivière Chaudière infléchit sa course dans une courbe familière. Les résidents observent quotidiennement cette eau brune, dont la puissance sourde rappelle la proximité des Chutes de la Chaudière, situées à dix kilomètres en amont, sculptant le souvenir d'une terre labourée par l'histoire agricole de Saint-Lambert-de-Lauzon. Dans le silence du soir, le paysage se dépouille de ses détails pour ne laisser que la silhouette des arbres et la fraîcheur qui monte du sol, un air vif qui semble porter en lui le secret des terres basses. À quatre kilomètres de là, le Lac à Wagner demeure une présence calme, un miroir discret qui ponctue la géographie locale sans jamais troubler le rythme lent des travaux des champs. Place-des-Îles conserve une intimité particulière, celle des rives où les hommes ont bâti leurs demeures face au flux constant du cours d'eau, acceptant sans mot dire la rudesse du climat et la générosité des récoltes. Chaque maison, chaque clôture, affirme une appartenance simple à ce sol qui ne demande qu'à être habité, tandis que la lumière déclinante transforme la rive en une ligne sombre, soulignant la solidité tranquille de ce secteur de La Nouvelle-Beauce.
