We started offering customized maps four years ago.
Since then, thousands 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.

To Order As these maps are
produced for you on a custom basis, we regret that they cannot be ordered
through the shopping cart on this website. Please
e-mail or phone us
(1-888-433-3782) to discuss your requirements.
Please describe the map
you want by selecting:
- centre-point, e.g. Lake ABC. Please remember that lake names
in Ontario are not unique so we will need the name of the nearest city, town or
community and as much other information as you can provide.
- size of coverage area or approximate scale
- size of your map (see above)
- any specific locations (lakes or towns) you want to include
in the coverage area
- lat/long grid lines can be added on request
Before finalizing the order, we will e-mail you a copy of the
map image so you can confirm the map covers your chosen area.
- Once the coverage area has been confirmed, we will provide
you with a reference number to use in the Shipping Instructions field
during checkout.

Additional InformationThese maps are generated using Softmap software. The source data are federal
government topographic maps (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, and roads.
- 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
map.
