Atlas of Canada

Thursday, January 24, 2013 by Jonathan Morgan

On January 25, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) is launching a new version of the Atlas of Canada website. This version was developed to meet the new web standards for the Government of Canada regarding web accessibility and usability. The new Atlas of Canada site includes all of the content of the previous version, however some of the dynamic map viewing functionality will no longer be available. They will continue to evolve the site over the next few months.

The Toporama web map service has been improved and includes more up-to-date data.

New web visualization services are currently under development and will be added to the Atlas in the coming months. These will include, among other things, a visualisation service for a new series of geosciences data.
