[Qgis-user] Toporama in QGIS in UTM

[John Abraham]

Works with QGIS 1.7.0 on OSX. Thanks.  

The Canadian TOPO WMS is great because it's seamless and you can select/order the layers, but the content is not as good as the original geotiffs which can be downloaded ftp://ftp2.cits.nrcan.gc.ca/pub/toporama/
