Developed and maintained by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Agribusiness, AgMaps is an interactive mapping application that helps visualize and analyze current and historical rural and agricultural data like never before, enabling farmers to better understand their land and factors that shape its productivity. 

 

AgMaps is your go-to hub for key rural and agricultural information. Whether you need high-resolution aerial imagery, municipal and tile drainage maps, soil data, or tools to assist in managing your land, it’s all easily accessible in one place. The magic lies in its customization, allowing you to combine and layer these details onto a single map, providing a comprehensive and personalized view of your farm.

 

AgMaps is an interactive toolkit for farm planning. Draw field boundaries, measure distances or areas, and mark your maps with notes and custom drawings and add-ons. Whether you’re creating a resource management strategy, an Environmental Farm Plan or carrying out a Farmland Health Checkup, AgMaps makes it simple by offering ready-to-use templates tailored to your needs. 

 

With AgMaps, locating your property and its features is simple. Search by GPS coordinates, 911 addresses, lot and concession numbers, or even your Assessment Roll Number (ARN). Better yet, AgMaps can pinpoint your exact location with the tap of a button on a mobile device and populate a detailed map of your surroundings. All data are stored locally on your device, meaning that no third parties can access your information.
