Part of the Nova Scotia Topographic database, the County Boundaries are a generalized cartographic representation of the County boundaries.

This dataset delineates the municipal boundaries for towns and district, county and regional municipalities in Nova Scotia.

[ARCHIVED] This dataset has been archived as it is no longer able to be provided in this manner. For a more current version of this elevation dataset, please refer to https://nsgi.novascotia.ca/datalocator/elevation/ to access the current catalogue of available elevation products. The Nova Scotia Elevation Dataset, consisting of a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) derived from LiDAR data is available for select 1:2000 scale map sheet windows in Pictou County. The DEM is a bare earth rasterized elevation model with a one metre cell size. The area collected is a total of thirty four 1:2000 scale map sheet windows for a total coverage of approximately 95 square kilometres.

For a more current version of this elevation dataset, please refer to https://nsgi.novascotia.ca/datalocator/elevation/ to access the current catalogue of available elevation products. Elevation data (LiDAR) was captured for a select group of 1:2000 scale map sheets in Pictou County. This LiDAR data has had all ground points classified thereby providing a bare earth profile for the project area. The nominal point spacing of the returns is 1 point per metre. The area collected is a total of thirty four 1:2000 scale map sheet windows for a total coverage of approximately 95 square kilometres.

Contained within the Atlas of Canada's Reference Map Series, 1961 to 2010, is a map of the Atlantic provinces. The map focuses on the four provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland. The map shows federal, provincial and territorial boundaries, and also boundaries of counties, of larger parishes, and of places of more than 50 000 inhabitants. The transportation content consists of roads (shown in four classes), ferries, and railways. Populated places are shown in one of five size classes. The map shows national parks and the larger provincial parks. Data is as of about 1990.

Contained within the 1st Edition (1906) of the Atlas of Canada is a plate that shows two maps. The first map that shows origins of the people in Maritime provinces and Eastern Quebec, circa 1901. The second map that shows origins of the people in Quebec and Ontario, circa 1901.A varying number of ethnic groups are shown, but mainly: English, Scotch [Scottish], Irish, French and German. People of British origin predominate all provinces, except Quebec, where the French predominated. The French also predominate in adjacent portions of Quebec, such as portions of eastern Ontario, northern New Brunswick, southwestern Nova Scotia, and in the southern portion of Cape Breton. In two small areas near Halifax, N.S., the map indicates descendants of deported persons from Jamaica. The Germans were principally descendants of United Empire Loyalists predominating portions of southern Nova Scotia, Waterlook, Lincoln and Welland counties. Communities with a population greater than 5000 people are shown as proportional dots on the map. In addition, major railway systems displayed.

This layer depicts the public transportation lines received through the Esri Community Maps program, USDOT, and publicly available datasets from agencies, municipalities and countries around the world. It is designed to be used with the other World Transit layers in the Living Alas. These layers include:World Transit Agency CentroidsWorld Transit StopsWorld Transit Lines by ModalityThese transit layers can be accessed together through the following resources:World Transit Group LayerWorld Transit Web MapWorld Transit Viewer (Web Mapping Application)The public transit lines are symbolized using color codes (six digit hexadecimal) provided by transit agencies. These colors correspond to many agencies" color designations such as in the Washington DC Metro with the Red, Orange, Blue, Green Yellow and Silver lines. The transit data is received in the General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) format, an open data standard for public transportation data. Each GTFS dataset is a zipped archive of comma-separated files describing the transit services, including the geometry for mapping. Esri converts GTFS datasets into ready-to-use map layers and makes them available as Feature Services in the Living Atlas. Esri Transit map layers include data from Esri Community Maps contributors, the US Department of Transportation, as well as publicly available GTFS datasets. Please note that any data layer fields marked with an "(Esri)" tag have been added by Esri to provide user-friendly translations of GTFS standard values or to add additional context and value. Community Maps GTFS dataThrough the Esri Community Maps Program, transit organizations are able to submit their own GTFS data for use across the ArcGIS platform, giving their data more visibility and accessibility to users. Organizations interested in sharing their data can join the Community Maps Program as a data contributor.

The Nova Scotia Detailed Soil Survey dataset series at a scale of 1:50 000 consists of geo-referenced soil polygons with linkages to attribute data found in the associated Component File (CMP), Soil Names File (SNF) and Soil Layer File (SLF). Together, these Version 1 datasets describe the spatial distribution of soils and associated landscapes in Pictou County.
