Abstract | (unpublished) Contained within the Atlas of Canada Poster Map Series, is a large-format Olympics Sites wall map (42 inches by 45 inches) featuring a 1:250 000 scale topographic base map
extending from the southern tip of Vancouver Island north to Pemberton and east to Abbotsford, British Columbia. It contains inset maps, at 1:50 000 scale of Vancouver and Whistler, from the new CanTopo map series to show these areas in greater
detail. Additional thematic information has been added to these insets to highlight the location of the Olympics and Paralympics sites (for example ski runs, athletes' village, hockey arena). |

Abstract | (unpublished) Contained within the Atlas of Canada Poster Map Series, is a poster which has been adapted from The Atlas of Canada's Northern Circumpolar Region map, MCR0001. It also contains a
Modis satellite image showing the same northern area as the map (composite from July to September 2007) produced by the Canada Centre for Remote Sensing, Natural Resources Canada. This bilingual poster-map has detailed coverage of all parts of the
world north of approximately 55 degrees. National capital cities are displayed along with other cities, towns, villages and hamlets; all have been updated to 2008. Some seasonally populated places are also shown. A number of significant northern
features can be found such as the minimum permanent polar sea ice extent for 1972 to 2007, tree line, undersea relief and undersea feature names, land relief, historical surveyed locations of the Magnetic North Pole from 1831 to 2007 and updated
glaciers, ice fields and coastal ice shelves. The undersea relief is the most up-to-date from t |

Abstract | (unpublished) Contained within the Atlas of Canada Poster Map Series, is a poster showing the different types of land cover across the Country. The map is primarily based on AVHRR (Advanced
Very High Resolution Radiometer) data, offering very precise detail. The land cover image contains 31 land cover classes. These have been grouped into 9 large land cover classes from coniferous forest to snow and ice. There are photos showing
visually what each of these 9 land cover areas look like. |

Abstract | (unpublished) Contained within the Atlas of Canada Poster Map Series, is a poster which shows the location of boreal forest in Canada. The two sided poster graphically depicts the importance
of the boreal forest as a dynamic system of shrubs, trees, herbs, mosses, micro-organisms, insects and animals interacting among themselves and with rock, soil, water and air. The history and economy of the forest is overviewed from 8,000 years ago
to today. The boreal forest is a huge, resilient and constantly changing ecosystem, driven by the long term succession of tree species and the animals which inhabit them. The poster map graphically depicts the challenges of sustainable forest
management of this beautiful and expansive resource. The Boreal Forest Poster Map is jointly published by the Canadian Forest Service and Geomatics Canada of the Department of Natural Resources Canada and Canadian Geographic Enterprises, publisher of
Canadian Geographic magazine. |

Abstract | (unpublished) Contained within the Atlas of Canada Poster Map Series, is a poster showing natural hazards in Canada. The two-sided poster map provides an overview of Canadian catastrophes over
space and time. Major Canadian natural hazards including earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides, avalanches, tornadoes and floods are documented graphically from 1663 until 1991. Explanations of each hazard help the reader understand it within the context
of other Canadian events throughout history. Natural Hazards is jointly published by Emergency Preparedness Canada of the Department of National Defense, Geomatics Canada of the Department of Natural Resources Canada and Canadian Geographic
Enterprises. |

Abstract | (unpublished) Contained within the Atlas of Canada Poster Map Series, is a poster entitled "Canada, A land of Superlatives." This colorful double sided poster map features Canadian firsts in
geography, communications, culture and sport. One side of the poster map features a stunning map of Canada derived from satellite images. Smaller map inserts feature Canada in terms of geological history, from the formation of earth, then the
continents, the ice age and human migration to the Americas 40,000 years ago. Reflected on the second side of the poster map are superlatives- the biggest, highest, longest and first events. These events are detailed in text with accompanying
graphics, pictures and charts. This poster map was produced as a joint venture between Canadian Geographic, the magazine of the Royal Canadian Geographical Society, and the National Atlas Information Service of the Department of Natural Resources
Canada. |

Abstract | (unpublished) Contained within the Atlas of Canada Poster Map Series, is a poster which outlines the nature of wetlands, using photos and text to describe various types. A further set of
photos and text describes the importance of wetlands, and the pressures on wetlands from human activities. The central map on the poster, a map of Canada at a scale of approximately 1: 20 000 000 shows the distribution of wetlands in Canada, and also
the flyways of migratory birds (as these birds depend heavily on wetlands when migrating). |
