2006 update of the Northwest Territories National Road Network dataset

September 7, 2006

On behalf of the Canadian Council on Geomatics (CCOG), Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) is pleased to announce the release of the second update of the Northwest Territories portion of the National Road Network (NRN).

This new release is the third edition for this dataset. The field work update campaign was performed in June 2006.

We wish to thank the Government of the Northwest Territories Department of Transportation for their assistance in change detection prior to field work activities as well as their assistance during the actual field acquisition campaign. Their participation is a valuable asset.

Data Change Management (DCM) files between the current and previous April 2005 releases are also provided for this dataset.
