The Atlas of Canada

The Atlas of Canada Web site is maintained by the governmental Natural Resources Canada Agency. This excellent interactive mapping and informational device lets users choose from dozens of topics to map such as geology, hydrology, land cover, glaciers, wetlands, natural hazards, and sea ice, as well as several others such as people and society, economic, health, and more. Once a map loads, users can zoom in and out, pan directions, get statistics about a point of interest, and get information from a legend. Although it's a little slow to load even for a cable modem, the large amount of information that can be viewed and accessed via this online tool is quite remarkable and should be a shining example to other governments as an easy way for citizens to access important facts.
