Description

This is a digitized image of a printed paper map of the Simcoe Island, Ontario region (Sheet No. 031C02H), published in 1959. It is the first edition in a series of maps, which show both natural and man-made features such as relief, spot heights, administrative boundaries, roads, railways, trails, waterways, buildings, terrain, and land formations. The photograph for this map was originally taken in 1954, by the Royal Canadian Air Force. It was taken as part of a survey commissioned by the Canadian Army Survey Establishment (A.S.E.). These various surveys were under the Surveys and Mapping Branch of the Department of Energy, Mines and Resources, Government of Canada. Original maps were digitally scanned and georeferenced as part of the Ontario Council of University Libraries (OCUL) Historical Topographic Map Digitization Project.
