Yukon Territory road network update
March 22, 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 Yukon Territory portion of National Road Network (NRN).
This new GeoBase NRN dataset was produced in collaboration with NRCan and the Geomatics Yukon, Information Communication and Technologies Branch, Department of Highways and Public Works.
NRCan wishes to thank and recognizes the excellent work that HPW performed in providing and targeting both attributive and geometric change detection for this dataset prior to start of the field campaign.
Data Change Management (DCM) files between 2004-09 and 2006-03 releases are also provided for this dataset.
All supporting documentation for NRN Data Change Management can be found within the following NRN GeoBase documents:
- National Vector Data Identification Rules [pdf 61 KB]
- National Vector Data Change Management [pdf 106 KB]
NOTE: It is important to mention that the Data Change Management files are being distributed on the basis of a Beta test. By this time next year NRCan and its partners will have performed a review and measure the volume of downloads and compiled GeoBase User comments in an attempt to re-evaluate the pertinence of producing and providing Data Change Management files for all GeoBase NRN datasets.
