Topographic maps of northern Aboriginal villages at a scale of 1/2,000

Topographic maps of northern Aboriginal villages at a scale of 1/2,000 Topographic mapping of northern indigenous villages is available for 23 villages. It was produced by photogrammetric method, from aerial photographs taken between 2009 and 2011. The accuracy of this mapping is of the order of ±40 centimeters in planimetry. In hypsometry, it is ±50 centimeters for dimensional points and ±1 meter for level curves. This precision may vary locally. The main components are: * Hydrography (body of water, watercourse, etc.); * Communication routes and road and airport infrastructures (road, bridge, airport, etc.); * Buildings and various constructions (building, wharf, surface reservoir, etc.); * Vegetation; * Vegetation; * Vegetation; * Geomorphology; * Geomorphology; * Level curves equidistant from 2 meters; * Rated points. The following villages are available: * Akulivik; * Aupaluk; * Aupaluk; * Chisasibi; * Eastmain; * Inukjuak; * Ivujivik; * Kangiqsujuaq; * Kangiqsujuaq; * Kangirsuk; * Kangirsuk; * Kangirsuk; * Kangirsuk; * Kawawachikamach; * Kuujjuaq; * Kuujjuarapik-Whapmagoostui; * Mistissini; * Nemaska; * Ouje-Bougoumou; * Puvirnituq; * Puvirnituq; * Quaqtaq; * Salluit; * Tasiujaq; * Umiujaq; * Waskaganish; * Waskaganish; * Waswanipi; * Wemindji.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).** 2025-05-01 Government and Municipalities of Québec geoboutique@mrnf.gouv.qc.ca Form DescriptorsNature and EnvironmentScience and Technology Download index (csv format)CSV https://diffusion.mern.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/RGQ/Documentation/BDVA/Index_BDVA.csv Physical structure of the dataDOC https://diffusion.mern.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/RGQ/Documentation/BDVA/Structure_physique_BDVA.doc Full directory (MTM projection)FGDB/GDB https://diffusion.mern.gouv.qc.ca/diffusion/RGQ/Vectoriel/Carte_Topo/Local/BDVA_2K/FGDBMTM/ Full directory (UTM projection)FGDB/GDB https://diffusion.mern.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/RGQ/Vectoriel/Carte_Topo/Local/BDVA_2K/FGDBUTM/ Download map by villageHTML https://vgo-telechargement.portailcartographique.gouv.qc.ca/mobile.aspx?gpw=3009373c-1da0-48c4-9514-29cfbb102bc8 Original metadata (https://www.donneesquebec.ca)HTML https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/fr/dataset/f9a50402-dcd3-4439-b43c-fbc5c9704006 Download index (shp format)SHP https://diffusion.mern.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/RGQ/Documentation/BDVA/Index_BDVA.zip MetadataXLS https://diffusion.mern.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/RGQ/Documentation/BDVA/Metadonnees_BDVA.xls Web serviceother https://servicescarto.mern.gouv.qc.ca/pes/services/Territoire/BDVA_WMS/MapServer/WMSServer
