What is the scale, contour interval and year of compilation for Provincial base maps?
Resource base mapping is available at 1:10,000 scale in both orthophoto and line mapping series. The contour interval for the 1:10000 resource series is 5 metres. 1:10,000 orthophoto maps were compiled from 1974 and 1980 photography. (depending on the area of the Province) 1:10,000 line mapping is being compiled from 1987-91 photography with full provincial coverage due for completion in December 1997. Larger scale base mapping is available for more populated areas at scales of 1:1000, 1:1200, 1:2000 and 1:2400. contour interval and compilation dates vary.
