More updates to the world topographic basemap with some Canadian content
The World Topographic Basemap was updated this week with some Canadian content. These updates cover a very small section of the country on Vancouver Island that includes five Community Maps of Canada program participants:
- Victoria
- Oak Bay
- Saanich
- Sooke
- Sidney
Updated content for southern Vancouver Island.
All of these communities and some of the surrounding area have been published down to 1:1,128. The rest of the southern end of Vancouver Island has been published down to 1:4,514. See the map below for the exact extents of the coverage.

This is the second in a series of updates that will span the entire country. The first included four smaller scales and was published back in August. The next update, expected to occur around mid-November, will include all of Canada at 1:144,448, 1:72,224 and 1:36,112.
