- Can I buy air photos and topo maps from Department of Natural Resources and Renewables Library?

The Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources and Renewables Library holds an extensive collection of aerial photography of Nova Scotia. We have aerial photographs for most areas of the Province from the 1930s and 1940s, mid 1950s, and then each decade from the 1960s to the present day. Photos are available for consultation during our regular business hours.

These photographs are not for sale. To purchase aerial photos taken prior to 1960, please see the National Air Photo Library at http://www.nrcan.gc.ca/earth-sciences/geomatics/satellite-imagery-air-photos/9265.

To purchase aerial photos of Nova Scotia from the 1960s to the present, please contact Service Nova Scotia https://geonova.novascotia.ca/map-store.
