The Association of BC Land Surveyors maintains the Survey and Plan Rules which lay out the requirements for Legal Surveys in the province. These rules outline that the georeferencing must refer to the framework (datum) required by the Surveyor General. The Surveyor General published Circular Letter 463A specifying the currently acceptable datums for surveys. In alignment with this requirement, ParcelMap BC is maintained and published in the appropriate epoch of the NAD83 CSRS datum corresponding to the location in the province.
If working with ParcelMap BC outside of it’s native datum (NAD83 CSRS), such as transforming your data to the appropriate CSRS realization or transforming ParcelMap BC to a non-CSRS reference, kindly refer to the following resources for guidance: | ||||||
