History

Date Posted to GIS:
2004
  • 2000: The original sidewalk information was collected through a field study and ground truthing project. Two temporary GIS staff drove through the District and collected various asset information pertaining to the road structure. Materials, types and ownership information was collected from the field and the extents of the features were marked up on hardcopy maps.
  • 2000: These hardcopy maps were then digitized into the GIS and various feature classes were created. Line work was corrected by using the most recent orthoimagery as a guideline.
  • 2007: As part of the District of North Vancouver's asset management program, parts of the Districts asset inventory was refined, augmented and completed. In some cases this involved the collection of more information which was then updated in the GIS.
  • 2012: All privately owned stairs were removed as their locations and attributes could not be verified nor maintained.
  • 2013: As part of the DNV's continuing asset management program, parts of the District's asset inventory was reviewed and refined, and the GIS was updated accordingly.

Quality

Accuracy
  • Generalized by a point. Full length of staircase and layout are not represented
  • Spatial information is collected using generalized techniques.
  • Spatial information is generalized and true locations are unknown.
Completeness
  • Some spatial information may be missing.
  • Expected to be close to complete.

Maintenance

Streets or Parks departments submit updates to the GIS as required.
