Printed publications via the Internet

CanSIS printed publications are available on the Internet using Adobe's PDF technology. These files are large. On this website, PDF files can be viewed using page-at-a-time downloading, or the entire file can be downloaded at once and used locally. Page-at-a-time offers faster access, but in order to search for text in the document, the entire PDF must be downloaded.

Printed maps are available via the Internet using JPEG technology. These files are also large.

If you are unfamiliar with these technologies, the following links may be useful.
