Summary
| Description |
Map of Canada, showing largest cities, lakes and province names. This map has locator code "CanadaGeo" for use in map-locator templates, such as English Wiki Template:Location_map_CanadaGeo & Template:Location_map_polarx (which skews northern coordinates for multiple map markers/labels on a polar map). The latitude/longitude coordinates are not equirectangular, but rather, in polar projection, narrowing at the north, with longitudes about 84% closer together at the top. The use of the narrowing longitudes provides more accurate mapping of area and distance than with rectangular coordinates. The original map image was public domain; the following modifications have been made to the original:
