Product Description
This sixth edition of the Nova Scotia Atlas provides in-depth coverage of the entire province unavailable anywhere else. The maps include numbered and colour-coded highways with exit numbers, hiking trails and national parks. There are details such as power lines, ferry routes, hospitals and communication towers. Airports, helipads and landing strips are mapped. Also included are all provincial parks (campgrounds, picnic sites, boat launches), with a text description of each. The maps clearly show physical features, including rivers, lakes, hills, islands, marshes and beaches.
The revisions in this new edition include all new highway construction completed in the past five years, three new wildernessareas and six new nature reserves. Waterfalls are now shown, and Crown land information has been extensively updated. All paved and unpaved roads (longer than 200 m) are included, as are a myriad of protected areas including game sanctuaries, wilderness and wildlife management areas. County and municipal boundaries are shown. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Exceptional atlas
If you are planning a trip to Nova Scotia, start here. This truly excellent atlas has topo features, cities and towns, roads, and what are probably no more than paths or tracks. It contains about 90 individual maps covering all of Nova Scotia, more than you ever wanted to know. Never having visited the Maritimes, I cannot attest to its accuracy, but it gives every appearance of being a superbly useful set of maps, professionally and carefully prepared.

5-0 out of 5 stars Essential for anyone travelling within Nova Scotia, Canada
I bought this book in Toronto, Ontario in preparation for my move to Wolfville, Nova Scotia.I am an avid naturalist and outdoor enthusiast (hiking, biking, Nordic skiing, canoeing), as well as an explorer of old roads and villages, so I required a detailed set of maps that would let me discover my new home province.

This highly detailed and up-to-date (2001) road atlas covers Nova Scotia at 1:150 000 (1 cm=1.5 km or 1 inch = 2.4 miles) in 90 highly detailed and colourful, yet very clear, map pages.Each map is large (25.5 cm x 18.5 cm or 10 in x 7.25 in) and overlaps a generous but not excessive 1.5 km (1 mi) with the adjacent map pages.The index has over 14 000 geographical names (towns, villages, rivers, lakes, islands, etc.).The book is 33.5 cm x 25.5 cm (13 in x 10 in) in total size, and weighs 780 g (1 lb, 11 oz).It is prepared by the Service Nova Scotia and Municipal Relations, and the Nova Scotia Geomatics Centre.

This volume has all of the features that one would expect from a conventional road atlas, including well-labelled highways, railways, ferry routes, cities, towns, villages, historic sites, parks, lakes, rivers, designated beaches, hospitals and airports.What sets it apart, however, is that it displays many features more typical of topographic maps in the convenience of one volume.Natural features such as contour lines, point elevations, wetlands and even the smallest ponds, streams and islands are clearly displayed.Human features, including sections of crown (public) land, airstrips, heliports, firetowers, power lines, pipelines, quarries, aeronautical obstacles and geodetic monuments are also well-marked.

What is most impressive, however, is that every road, paved and unpaved, longer than 200 m (600 ft or 1/8 mi) in the province is indicated in a colour and thickness that corresponds to the type of road and surface.These roads include limited access highways (Nova Scotia 100 Highway series), arterial highways (NS Highways 1 to 28), collector highways (NS 200 and 300 Highway series), local highways, local roads, loose surface roads, cart tracks, public hiking trails and rail trails.

Needless to say, this detail is an absolute dream for those that like to explore the province off the beaten track, and for those that wish to hike, mountain bike or Nordic ski on old logging roads.The contours and natural features labelled on the pages will also help in determining the topography of a trip.

My only wish is that some of the larger non-highway side roads (which the province unfortunately does not number) were labelled on the maps.However, my guess is that the author may have felt that these labels would clutter the pages to the point where they would decrease the quality of the atlas.After travelling in a certain region, I have taken to labelling the roads on the corresponding atlas page with an index number, and then, in the generous margins, cross-referencing the number with the name of the road so that I know where it is in the future.

This atlas is fantastic value when one considers the price of individual governmental topographic maps.I am of the opinion that it will satisfy all but the most hardcore back-country adventurer in Nova Scotia (I would still suggest the governmental 1:50 000 map series for individuals planning longer canoe or backpacking trips).

Combine the information in this book with excellent and up-to-date books on Hiking Trails of Nova Scotia by Michael Haynes (completely different trails are featured in the 7th AND 8th editions), and Mountain bike! Atlantic Canada by Sarah L. Hale and Jodi E. Bishop, and you are set to explore this beautiful part of the world!

Have fun and drive safely! ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description

The book addresses scientists and technical experts who have already some background knowledge in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and who want to know more about standardisation in GIS, in particular, the role of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). In addition, the monograph meets the needs of programmers who are involved in implementing ISO 19100 standards and who need a better understanding of the overall structure of the standards. Last, but not least, this richly illustrated book helps readers to better understand the rather abstract ISO documents.

Editorial Review

Product Description
Significant advances in geomatics and geomorphology are changing the way in which scientists study complex mountain environments. This book provides a critical treatment and evaluation of these recent developments. With the advent of advanced satellite sensors, high resolution satellite imagery and digital elevation models enable quantitative analysis and modelling of the landscape. It is becoming ever more important for geoscientists to integrate geomatics into their scientific investigation. This book is a "must" for any researcher actively working in geomatics, geomorphology and mountain systems. It will also be valuable to geologists and resource planners interested in the role of surface processes in complex orogens and resource assessment and sustainable development. ... Read more
