Canadian Web Mapping Applications

Maps are one of the most powerful tools in the world. They provide invaluable insights into the relationships between people, places, and events.

Online mapping applications are digital tools that allow users to explore the physical world. These applications are designed to collect, process, and visualize geographic data from multiple sources, allowing users to get a better understanding of their surroundings. They provide a comprehensive view of the world, including streets, roads, rivers, lakes, and other geographic features. Online map applications are used by people all over the world to find their way around unfamiliar places, plan trips, locate services, and more. They are also used in many industries, such as real estate, tourism, logistics, and more. 

In the “Canadian Web Mapping Applications” section we share different Canadian Web Mapping Applications that we use, as well as others that we have come across. See the various links listed further below for pages containing a variety of Canadian Web Mapping Applications …

Ever hear anybody use the expression “You better be careful you don’t dig too deep or you will end up in China” while digging a hole? Even if that could be possible (to dig down through the Earth’s core and come up on the other side of the world), would it really be China on the other side of that hole? What would be the  real Antipode (straight line that connects one location on the globe with a location on the other side of a globe while going through the center axis) for that hole you were digging? The antipodes interactive web map depicts antipodes automatically for any location that you select.
