We started offering customized maps three years ago. Since then, hundreds of customers have been thrilled with our customized maps, made exactly to their requirements.

Federal Publications can print customized topographic maps to cover the exact area you want. If the pre-printed Government of Canada topographic map doesn't suit your purposes, we can use this same data to create a customized map just for you. The scale of the original maps is 1:50,000 but we can zoom in to focus on a small area, or zoom out to cover a larger area. Note: zooming in will not add detail, merely enlarge the existing image.

If your small lake is "lost" on a full-sized topo, or perhaps your lake is split between several topo sheets, our customized maps are perfect for you!

Samples: Crystal Lake and Mississippi Lake.

We offer three different sizes:

Additional Information

These maps use federal government topographic maps as the source data (see below). They show the detail of the land, not the depths of the water.

Topo sheets have been stitched together. In some cases, there is a difference in colours (particularly in greens) between the map sheets. We will always alert you if there is a significant colour difference.

Available for most areas in:
B.C., Alberta, Ontario, Quebec and the Maritimes.

Topographic Maps

  • Topographic maps show the detail of the surface of the land, including, lakes, rivers, road
  • Topographic maps do not show lake depths.
  • Topographic maps show roads, but not road names (only numbers of major highways), nor do they show lot lines or concession lines.
We regret, there are a few exceptions to the areas for which we can produce a customized topo maps.
