GIS Data
Various GIS data sets are available on the Nelson MSRM FTP site.
We also have an Incoming
FTP, which allows outside parties to supply data to MSRM. The corporate data that is posted on the
outgoing FTP site is uploaded every night, to ensure currency. HLP and RMAC data are only reposted when
officially updated by cabinet. The misc directory is subject to change and is cleaned out at
the end of every week.
For a complete list of GIS data at the Kootenay Region MSRM office see our
Data Dictionary, Any data in the Dictionary
not posted to the FTP site must be requested through the regional GIS Coordinator.
Data on the Nelson FTP Site is organized the following four main
directories:
nelftp.env.gov.bc.ca/pub/outgoing/
For more data here
is a link to the Victoria FTP site map, http://srmwww.gov.bc.ca/gis/arcftp.html.
Data is only available in ArcInfo format. If you cannot use data in this
format, MSRM can provide a list of contractors who can translate the data for
you.
If you have any questions contact Per Wallenius,
Kootenay Region GIS Coordinator
