The Geomatics Division archives contain over 22,000 aerial photographs. The oldest date from 1930, but they are generally located between 1950 and 2003. The set provides a link to an interactive map allowing the download of aerial photographs from multiple years held by the City for the purposes of producing basic cartography. The images are available throughout the island of Montreal or partially depending on the years and scales of aerial photographs. An aerial photograph is a photograph taken from the air. Normally, these are taken vertically, on board an aircraft, using a highly accurate camera. NOTE1: The collection of the Geomatics Division is distinct from that of the Archives de Montréal. NOTE2: The City distributes the photographs in its possession. However, in the event that a claimant has claims on this subject, he is invited to submit them to the City. NOTE3: Note that for paper-based archival images, the City generally does not have the original slides.

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><P><SPAN>USGS developed The National Map Gazetteer as the federal and national standard (ANSI INCITS 446-2008) for geographic nomenclature based on the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). The National Map Gazetteer contains information about physical and cultural geographic features, geographic areas, and locational entities that are generally recognizable and locatable by name (have achieved some landmark status) and are of interest to any level of government or to the public for any purpose that would lead to the representation of the feature in printed or electronic products and/or geographic information systems. The dataset includes features of all types in the United States, its associated areas, and Antarctica, current and historical, but not including roads and highways. The dataset holds the federally recognized name of each feature and defines the feature location by state, county, USGS topographic map, and geographic coordinates. Other attributes include names or spellings other than the official name, feature classification, and historical and descriptive information. The dataset assigns a unique, permanent feature identifier, the Feature ID, as a standard Federal key for accessing, integrating, or reconciling feature data from multiple datasets. This dataset is a flat model, establishing no relationships between features, such as hierarchical, spatial, jurisdictional, organizational, administrative, or in any other manner. As an integral part of The National Map, the Gazetteer collects data from a broad program of partnerships with federal, state, and local government agencies and other authorized contributors. The Gazetteer provides data to all levels of government, to the public, and to numerous applications through a web query site, web map and feature services, file download services, and customized files upon request. The National Map viewer allows free downloads of public domain geographic names data by state in a pipe-delimited text format.
