BorealMaps: Crown Land Maps

BorealMaps is the outdoor app built for Quebec. Crown land, forest roads, hunting zones, fishing lakes and campgrounds on one fast map — that keeps working when the cell signal doesn't. CREATE YOUR MAPS BEFORE YOU GO Plan your trip from the couch: create and save your georeferenced maps right in the app. No computer, no conversion, no connection needed once you're in the field. YOUR GEOPDFS ARE WELCOME Already have georeferenced maps? Import your existing GeoPDFs for free. INDEPENDENT APP — OFFICIAL SOURCES BorealMaps is an independent app: it is not affiliated with, and does not represent, the Gouvernement du Québec, the Government of Ontario or any other government entity. The government information shown (public land, hunting zones, multi-use roads, topographic maps) comes from official open data: Québec — Données Québec (CC BY 4.0 licence): https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset Québec road network (Référentiel québécois du transport terrestre): https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/referentiel-quebecois-du-transport-terrestre Québec official place names (Commission de toponymie): https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/0d7c1c75-4a46-4a65-bf60-5f7847121055 Ontario — Ontario GeoHub / Land Information Ontario (Open Government Licence – Ontario): https://geohub.lio.gov.on.ca/ https://www.ontario.ca/page/open-government-licence-ontario KNOW WHERE YOU STAND • Quebec crown land: 41,000 parcels, distinguishing public land, ZEC, wildlife reserve, outfitter and park. Tap anywhere to see which territory you're standing on. • Hunting zones: all 29 official zones, clearly bounded. • Forest roads: over 900,000 segments of Quebec's network, with road class and surface type. • Fishing: 14,000 water bodies with recorded species. Add your own — they stay with you. • Campgrounds: 1,163 sites. • Search: 147,000 official place names — lakes, rivers, municipalities — accents optional. • Ontario: Crown land, provincial parks, hunting zones (WMU), fishing zones (FMZ) and forest roads, with the same layers as Quebec. REAL TERRAIN • 3D relief and hillshade for all of Quebec. • Plan, Satellite or Relief basemaps, depending on what you're looking for. • Contour lines generated on the fly. ACTUALLY OFFLINE Download the region you're heading to before you leave. Once you're out there with no bars, the map, the layers and your data are all still there. No data plan required, no missing tiles at the worst moment. YOUR OUTINGS • Background track recording: phone in your pocket, screen off, the track stays complete. Distance, duration, speed. • Waypoints: long-press to mark a camp, a spot, a trailhead. • GPX import and export, no conversion needed. • Share an outing: a map of your route plus a georeferenced PDF that other apps can read. YOUR OWN MAPS Import your georeferenced maps (PDF or GeoTIFF) — outfitter maps, cut plans, old topo sheets — and lay them over the map. No limit on how many. Questions, or an error on the map?
