Submit an Online Web Mapping Site

By T_mackinnon @tedmackinnon

Online Web mapping involves designing, implementing, generating and delivering maps to end users via the Internet through common web browsers, allowing people to use maps interactively with out needing high end software. Web GIS is very similar to web mapping but provides analysis, data processing, publishing and other GIS abilities. Often these two terms are used synonymously, even if they are not exactly the same product. None the less both have been increasing exposure over the past few years, a major accomplishment for the GIS industry and since Web mapping can not exist without GIS, (and for simplicity) I have combined these all into one category here on the site.

The CanadianGIS.com web mapping section examines the various online web mapping and web GIS applications that have been created all across Canada. I added this section to the website a few years back when I noticed an increase in web map usage being used for a wide range of different applications.

Some of ones that I have covered are ones that I have used before myself or ones that I use on a regular basis, others have been submitted to me for consideration or are ones that I just happened to come across while surfing the web.

So as you browse through the CanadianGIS.com Web mapping section category you will find that are a wide array of online mapping applications with Canadian content being offered via the internet from coast to coast.

Some notable one that has been covered so far includes:

 Plus many more that you can find here

My aim is to continue covering Online Web mapping in Canada I would love to be able to include all Canadian online maps so am on the hunt to find and cover more as time goes on.

Therefore if you have an online web mapping application that you created or know of a great one that has yet to be covered by CanadianGIS.com?

Then you should let me know about it, so that I can cover it on the site and share information about it with others who can take advantage of the great Canadian Online Web mapping tools too.
