The Canadian Ice Service Web site provides ice information products in graphic and text formats. You can view or print any of these products.
Viewing
Charts/Images
Our charts and images are in standard GIF and JPG formats. Often, our charts or maps are too large to view completely in your browser. For single-window viewing of our charts, you can use software viewers such as MrSID and Adobe Acrobat Reader, which you can download at no charge.
Bulletins
Our bulletins are in standard ASCII text format (.txt). You can view them using any text editor or word processor.
Printing
You can view our GIF and JPG charts using any Web browser; however, browser will not print our large maps or charts on a single page. You will need graphic software viewers to print the file on a single page.
For optimal printing functionality of ice charts and seasonal outlooks, we also provide our products in PDF format.
File Formats
To determine the types of files you wish to have returned in your query results, select the file formats on our Ice Conditions query page (File Format Types section) by check/unchecking the required boxes. Please note: by default all file formats are selected.
