New PEI Map Resources

Introducing a collection of map resources for Prince Edward Island to supplement the GeoPEI layers and provide guidance on using these primary resources in essays and papers.

This collection includes original sources for maps and charts from the mid-18th century to today’s aerial photos and videos, including the key coastal surveys of the 18th and 19th century by Samuel Holland and Henry Bayfield respectively, along with guidance on using 20th century topographic maps.

Please click on the PEI Map Resources menu or any of the sub-menus for further information.
