Although there aren't aerial photos of the whole province, there is still
quite a lot of useful details all over. There is another online map that
isn't as user-friendly as the map Randy provided, but shows aerial photos of
a different area of the province. It was done by the government of NS for
the damage assessment of Hurricane Juan.
You need pop-ups enabled for the application to work.

Subject: Re: [NatureNS] on line air photos and maps
One problem may be that photos only seem to be available for part of the
province. If you check out the Pictou-Antigonish region you'll see them (if
you are zoomed in to 1:250000 or smaller, as Randy says). I wasn't able to
find photos for anywhere else.

Folks,
It isn't perfect...I'm hearing BS here about a FREE service that is
extremely useful and convenient. By the way, I had nothing to do with the
development of it, nor do I work for either level of government involved. In
the past, if you had wanted to look at so many air photos, you had to order
them yourself at great expense, or go to a library or other source to work
with the hard copies. I've done that, it's a pain relative to this.
To access the air photos, I would still use the link I provided
(https://ns.nfis.org/mapserver/ka-map/htdocs/). You'll see the menu on the
left..."ortho photos" only appears once you're zoomed in to a scale of
1:250000. Click that option, the photos appear.
