GEOG 311-3-3 Environmental Management

The Freshwater Atlas is a standardized dataset for mapping British Columbia's hydrological features. The atlas defines watershed boundaries and provides a connected network of streams, lakes and wetlands. This network serves as the foundation for sophisticated analysis and modelling.

The quality of B.C.’s water is a reflection of the environmental, economic and social well-being of our province. The Freshwater Atlas has been developed as a management tool to ensure freshwater resources in B.C. are sustained for future generations.

The Digital Road Atlas is a single, authoritative source of road data for the Province of B.C. The geodatabase is a major component of British Columbia's Integrated Transportation Network.

Through provision of road-related datasets and data services, the Digital Road Atlas supports government agencies, industry and the general public.
