83N Winagami: Alberta Provincial Topographic Maps at 1:250,000 Scale

50 color topographic maps at a 1:250,000 scale covering the province of Alberta. The maps display the Alberta Township System, 50-meter contour intervals, hydrographic features, municipalities, roads, railways, and geo-administrative features like parks and reserves. The series is produced by the Government of Alberta and was last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Plan land development based on Alberta Township System (ATS) boundaries.
• Analyze terrain and elevation changes based on 50-meter contour intervals.
• Map transportation networks based on major roads and railways.
• Identify protected areas and administrative boundaries based on geo-administrative features.
• Study watersheds and drainage patterns based on major hydrographic features.

Strengths

• 50 individual maps provide coverage for the entire provincial extent of Alberta.
• Standardized 1:250,000 scale and National Topographic System (NTS) identifiers ensure consistency.
• Includes multiple layers of geographic information, such as contours, hydrography, and infrastructure.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to open_canada.
