The Central Group Caribou Partnership Agreement Zones are the spatial data associated with the Intergovernmental Partnership Agreement for the Conservation of the Central Group of the Southern Mountain Caribou (February 21, 2020). This most current version of the data was produced in June 2021.

A table that stores client numbers and their associated mineral, placer and coal title numbers. Used as a cross reference to the MTA - Mineral, Placer and Coal tenure SVW dataset.

Glaciers and ice masses for the province, derived from aerial imagery flown in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Please refer to the Glaciers dataset for recent glacier extents in British Columbia, and Historical Glaciers for a comparable historic view.

Links the edge type codes used in the stream network layer with an English description used to categorize stream network features

Contains all primary and secondary matches between 1:20K and 1:50K waterbody polygons. This attribute table links the new Freshwater Atlas watershed codes with the existing 1:50K Watershed Atlas watershed codes for cross reference purposes

Points with rotations that indicate downstream flow direction. Can be displayed with arrow symbols to show flow direction. There is one point at the upstream end for each stream network feature

All wetland polygons for the province

Named point features (both fresh and marine) such as points of land, etc. Point names included as an attribute

Snowpack classification for the Cariboo Region (based on 2014 biogeoclimatic zones)

Bay and Channel (fresh and marine) features and associated names

This record contains Grizzly Bear population estimates for British Columbia for multiple years: 2012, 2015 and 2018. The 2012 Grizzly Bear population estimate report for British Columbia report is available here:...

Water obstacles (rapids, falls, etc)

Lookup table for watershed type codes

Linear coastlines of BC, including mainland and marine islands. Lines are directionalized and connected. Attributes include a hierarchical key and route identifier

All lake polygons for the province

All named watershed polygons

Polygons delimiting the watershed group boundary, which is a collections of drainage areas. In-land groups will contain a single polygon, coastal groups may contain multiple polygons (one for each island)

All manmade waterbodies, including reservoirs and canals, for the province

Links the waterbody type codes used in the waterbody layers with an English description used to categorize waterbody features

Assessment Watersheds are mesoscale aquatic units designed to replace the 3rd order 1:50K watersheds. Assessment Watersheds are based on groupings of fundamental watersheds using FWA watershed code and local code, with a target size of between 2,000ha and 10,000ha.
