Hello all:
The first Canadian computer-generated atlas that I know about is Claude
Marois' Employment Atlas: City and Island of Montreal. Montreal:
Universite du Quebec a Montreal, 1972. It used SYMAP V to produce 184
choropleth maps showing employment by industry, district and number of
employees categories in Montreal.
