CENSUS AGRICULTURAL REGIONS - Digital and Cartographic Boundary Files

Description - User Guides - Datasets - Example - back to Geogindex


Description:

The 2006 Census Agricultural Regions Boundary Files contain the boundaries of all 82 census agricultural regions (see the Glossary subsection for a definition) delineated for the 2006 Census of Agriculture.

The 2006 Census Agricultural Regions Boundary Files are available for download in two types: digital boundary file and cartographic boundary file.

The 2006 Census Agricultural Regions Boundary Files provide a framework for mapping and spatial analysis. The digital file depicts the full extent of the geographical areas, including the coastal water area. The cartographic file depicts the geographical areas using only the major land mass of Canada and its coastal islands. The files are available in three formats: ArcInfo® (.shp), MapInfo® (.tab) and Geography Markup Language (.gml).

Supplementary hydrographic layers are also available and provided by Geography Division. More details can be found in the Boundary Files Reference Guide 2006 Census, Catalogue No. 92-160- GIE. This ‘water’ layer can be used for additional reference purposes when mapping or displaying the boundaries in either the digital or cartographic boundary file.  (Source: Statistics Canada)
