This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Val-Martin, Quebec. 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 Quebec or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Val-Martin 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 Val-Martin.
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.

Val-Martin is a residential area in Laval; Laval, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Val-Martin is located at 45.5453°N, 73.7472°W.
Val-Martin occupies a quiet corner of Laval, defined by the steady, low-slung geography that keeps watch over the St. Lawrence. It lies 15.6 km west-north-west of Montréal, QC (from Montréal, QC: bearing 285°T), and is situated 0.7 km south-south-west of Laval. The air here holds a crisp, persistent clarity, especially when the golden light of late afternoon catches the reeds near the Les Écores. While the Rivière du Chicot flows through the landscape some 9 km away, the local terrain remains defined by its proximity to the wide, moving currents of the St. Lawrence. Further afield, the landscape opens toward the distant Lac aux Castors at 13 km or the protected expanses of Parc national des Îles-de-Boucherville at 22 km, yet Val-Martin maintains its own steady presence. The ground feels solid beneath the shifting seasons, carrying a stillness that persists even as the modern pulse of Laval grows around it. Val-Martin grew from the agricultural roots of the island, transitioning over the decades into a residential character that values its connection to the riverbanks. The local economy and daily life reflect the steady development of this part of Quebec, where the industrious nature of past generations has settled into a pattern of quiet, suburban living. Residents move through their days with a focus on the practicalities of the region, yet there is a lingering respect for the land that once sustained early settlers. Even as new structures rise, the identity of Val-Martin stays anchored in its historical relationship with the water and the open, level stretches of earth that characterize this distinct portion of the island.
Val-Martin s'étire avec une tranquille assurance sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, où la lumière déclinante du soir semble s'attarder sur les eaux vastes et les Écores qui bordent l'horizon de leurs lignes sobres. Ce paysage, façonné par une géographie où le ciel rencontre le fleuve, conserve une atmosphère singulière, portée par le souffle frais qui remonte du courant. À une distance de neuf kilomètres, la Rivière du Chicot serpente discrètement, tandis que le Lac aux Castors, situé à treize kilomètres, rappelle la présence d'une nature sauvage maintenue à portée de main. Plus loin, le Parc national des Îles-de-Boucherville déploie ses étendues protégées à vingt-deux kilomètres, offrant un contraste de quiétude face à l'activité humaine. Le quotidien à Val-Martin se décline dans la simplicité des gestes habituels, entre les demeures qui s'alignent et les espaces ouverts qui permettent à chacun de respirer. L'histoire locale, marquée par les racines agricoles et le labeur des générations passées, infuse encore les rues de cette partie de Laval, conférant aux lieux une authenticité qui refuse les artifices. Ici, le rythme de vie se calque sur le passage des heures, invitant à contempler la persistance d'un cadre où le sol et l'eau dictent une harmonie discrète, presque invisible pour qui ne sait pas s'arrêter un instant pour écouter le silence.

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.
