If you're researching fighting in France you should check out this site:

I provides excellent topographical information throughout France. It's modern, so you have to be careful re buildings etc. but hills don't change much and the topographical information is very detailed:

Looks like a nice resource. Thanks

The french Carte Bleu series of (paper) maps are good as well. They include any still existing fortifications, pillboxes etc that can still be found on the ground. I have found the Normandy ones very good.

The maps can the ordered online.
