Topographic System:
The Canadian government produces an excellent series of high
quality topographic maps at a scale of 1:50 000 with 10 metre
contour intervals. Individual houses, churches, schools and
cemeteries are also marked in rural areas (which is all of Saint
Patrick Parish), although some do get missed. For more
information, see the Centre for Topographic Information, which is
part of Natural Resources Canada.(1)
Saint Patrick Parish is unfortunately situated
right on one of the grid intersections, so four maps are needed
for full coverage. The map numbers and names are:
