Viewing Name Nunavut Places on
IHT’s Nunavut Map Series
 


IHT’s vision is to produce a Nunavut Traditional Names Map Series. Paper maps are useful to hunters and travelers on the land.

However, the process involved in verifying the spelling and precise locations of the thousands of traditional names is a lengthy one. Paper maps, for distribution, take a long time to produce. A Nunavut Map Series is a long term project.

We will add more maps here as they become available.
