The mapping has altitude colouring to show the topography. The atlas shows the region’s road & rail networks, indicating driving distances on selected main routes, service/rest areas, border crossings to the US, etc. Symbols mark various places of interest. National parks & other provincial protected areas are highlighted. Cartography in the atlas comes from various folded maps published by ITMB. The atlas covers: Ontario at 1:1, 000, 000 & 1:1, 550, 000; Quebec at 1:1, 100, 000 & 1:1, 750, 000; New Brunswick, Nova Scotia & Price Edward Island at 1:380, 000; Newfoundland at 1:750, 000; & Labrador at 1:1, 385, 000. Changes in scale are not indicated in the customary way of colouring the borders of the atlas pages accordingly. in addition, the same altitude colours are used for different elevation bands in various parts of the region. Those not familiar with the geography of Eastern Canada may, therefore, find this publication rather difficult to use when travelling by car. ...
