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).

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 Saint-Ours.
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.

Saint-Ours is a town in Saint-Ours; Pierre-De Saurel, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Saint-Ours is located at 45.8894°N, 73.1502°W.
Saint-Ours rests upon the fertile lowlands of Quebec, positioned where the steady, dark currents of the Rivière Richelieu draw near the expansive St. Lawrence. It lies 17.4 km south of Sorel-Tracy, QC (from Sorel-Tracy, QC: bearing 190°T), and is situated 9.8 km east of Lavaltrie. The river defines the pulse of Saint-Ours, its waters carrying the scent of damp earth and deep currents past banks that bloom with the heavy, golden light of late afternoon. Beyond the immediate reach of the shoreline, the terrain levels out toward the Coteau de Salvail, where the horizon broadens and the sky seems to press closer to the fields. Though Parc national des Îles-de-Boucherville waits some distance away, the immediate surroundings of Saint-Ours possess a quiet intensity, marked by the way mist clings to the water’s surface during the transition from night to morning. Founded upon a legacy of seigneurial land grants, Saint-Ours maintains a character shaped by its long-standing connection to the water and the agrarian labor that once defined the region. The economy persists in harmony with the land, reflecting a tradition of agriculture and river-borne trade that has sustained families for generations. Strolling through the streets, one observes buildings that stand with a stoic, functional grace, their architecture echoing the practical ingenuity required to thrive in this climate. The daily life of Saint-Ours moves with a deliberate clarity, a sense of belonging to a landscape that asks for patience and rewards it with the simple, stark beauty of a sun-bleached barn or the sudden, sharp clarity of a winter wind sweeping off the river.
Saint-Ours se déploie avec une sérénité ancienne sur les rives de la Rivière Richelieu, là où la terre semble retenir le souffle des siècles. Le regard s’égare vers le Coteau de Salvail, dont les ondulations douces marquent le paysage d’une présence familière et apaisante. À mesure que le jour décline, une lumière dorée, presque liquide, s'attarde sur les eaux calmes, révélant la texture fine des champs qui entourent Saint-Ours et témoignent d’une longue tradition agricole. L'air, chargé d'une humidité légère venue du Saint-Laurent tout proche, porte en lui le murmure des mémoires paysannes et le rythme lent d'une existence en harmonie avec le courant. Les habitants observent le passage des heures sous un ciel vaste, tandis que les structures historiques rappellent l'importance de ce site pour le transport et les échanges d'autrefois. Si le Parc national des Îles-de-Boucherville se situe à une distance respectueuse, le caractère de Saint-Ours demeure intimement lié à la trajectoire sinueuse de la rivière. Ici, chaque bâtisse et chaque rang cultivé racontent une patience oubliée par les rythmes modernes, offrant aux passants la sensation rare d’un temps qui aurait consenti à s’arrêter pour contempler la beauté simple de la terre québécoise.
