BC Electronic Library Network SharingDataCollaborationTrustRelationships Cadastral Feature Classes – Local Government Cadastre The Local Government Cadastre (As-Is-Cadastre) is a parcel fabric assembled entirely from local government data. Submissions are typically provided manually on an ad hoc basis, although several are received through an automated delivery process that will be phased out in favor of BCSpatial’s more integrated process. Whatever datasets have been received within the last 30 days are manually loaded into the Local Government Cadastre once a month. This layer does not contain standardized attribution, although we attempt to reconcile fields with similar content as best as we can. The positional accuracy and attribution varies from local government to local government.

BC Electronic Library Network SharingDataCollaborationTrustRelationships Cadastral Feature Classes - ICF The Integrated Cadastral Fabric is produced by the Parcel Fabric Section on behalf of ICIS. The ICF layer includes many jurisdictions that are maintained on a bi- weekly basis by GeoBC’s Parcel Fabric Section to published attribute and currency standards. In other jurisdictions where the data is not actively maintained by GeoBC, the ICF includes local government parcel shapes with standardized Provincial attribution. An attribute on the fabric distinguishes between parcels that have been maintained by GeoBC and parcels that have been integrated from other ICIS members.

BC Electronic Library Network SharingDataCollaborationTrustRelationships Cadastral Feature Classes - ICIS Cadastre The ICIS Cadastre is ICIS’ answer to the challenge of providing a single source parcel layer for its members. The data in this layer includes the best available parcel data from both Provincial and Local Government sources with standardized and uniform attribution. All ICIS Cadastre data is delivered via automated delivery mechanisms and is refreshed on a weekly basis. The data for each jurisdiction comes from either the local government or GeoBC, and is joined to standardized attribution provided by GeoBC to create a uniform cadastre across boundaries and to verify that all registered parcels are included in the fabric.

BC Electronic Library Network SharingDataCollaborationTrustRelationships Cadastral Feature Classes – BC Assessment Fabric Layer The BC Assessment Fabric is a geospatial representation of the assessment roll. It contains a boundary for almost every property in British Columbia. Unlike a legal cadastre fabric, it is an ownership fabric. This means there may be many legal lots represented by one assessed property. Properties that do not have a spatial representation defined by its corresponding local government are occasionally represented using a diamond shape as a placeholder. This is done to assist finding a property’s location, and is usually a precursor to having a property boundary defined.

BC Electronic Library Network SharingDataCollaborationTrustRelationships Feature Class – Conservation Parcels “Conservation parcels are lands managed for nature conservation that are owned (fee simple) by non-governmental organizations (e.g. The Nature Trust of BC, Ducks Unlimited Canada, Nature Conservancy of Canada) and the Canadian Wildlife Service.”

BC Electronic Library Network SharingDataCollaborationTrustRelationships Feature Class – ALR The Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) is a provincial zone in which agriculture is recognized as the priority use. Farming is encouraged and non-agricultural uses are controlled. The ALR covers approximately 4.7 million hectares. It includes private and public lands that may be farmed, forested or vacant land. Some ALR blocks cover thousands of hectares while others are small pockets of only a few hectares. In total, the ALR comprises those lands within BC that have the potential for agricultural production.

BC Electronic Library Network SharingDataCollaborationTrustRelationships Feature Class – Protected Areas A shapefile depicting parcels administered by the Canadian Wildlife Service of Environment Canada, some of which are designated as National Wildlife Areas under the Canada Wildlife Act. Some of the parcels are owned fee- simple, while others are under lease arrangements.

BC Electronic Library Network SharingDataCollaborationTrustRelationships Feature Class – Migratory Bird Sanctuaries Migratory Bird Sanctuaries are designations under the Migratory Birds Convention Act and are administered by the Canadian Wildlife Service of Environment Canada.
