Summary
Abstract: Atlas of Canada National Frameworks data are standardized national coverages of
commonly used geospatial data sets at the 1:1 000 000 scale. A variety of
framework layers (e.g. hydrology, roads, railways, populated places) have been
integrated so that their relative positions are correct. Hydrology (which
includes coastline) is the base layer to which all others are fitted. ... View entire text

Quality Where applicable, attribute data were symbolized on-screen or as hard copy
plots and inspected. Attribute data integrity was also verified using automated
procedures to check for anomalies such as duplication of data in fields
requiring unique vales and incorrect feature coding. These data were derived
from National Frameworks Hydrology and Drainage areas. Therefore completeness
reflects the content of the source data.
