The Fifth Edition of the National Atlas of Canada consisted of 93 separate, stand-alone maps that were published between 1978 and 1995. The maps covered a wide range of subjects, but there was a slight emphasis on environmental issues. Although the map sheets varied considerably in their overall size, the format of nearly all the maps consisted of a central map at scale 1: 7 500 000, accompanied by a legend, a source list and extensive notes. The maps contained in this section are scans of the original printed maps.
