ParcelMap BC is the single, complete, trusted and sustainable electronic map of active titled parcels and surveyed provincial Crown land parcels in British Columbia. This particular dataset is a subset of the complete ParcelMap BC data and is comprised of the parcel fabric and attributes for over two million parcels published under the Open Government Licence - British Columbia.

This dataset does NOT include parcel representations (i.e. distinct polygons with unique PID identifiers) for Building Strata Parcels - Building Strata parcels are represented by a single polygon uniquely identified by the Strata Plan Number (i.e. individual strata lot PIDs are not included). For a dataset which includes unique polygon features (stacked geometries) for each Building Strata parcel, please use the ParcelMap BC Parcel Fabric or ParcelMap BC Parcel Fabric - Fully Attributed dataset or refer to the ParcelMap BC Shared Geometry Cross Reference Table, which includes the strata lot (PID) to strata plan relationship.

Notes:

Parcel title information is sourced from the BC Land Title Register. Title questions should be directed to a local Land Title Office.
The ParcelMap BC Parcel Fabric is expected to eventually replace the Integrated Cadastral Fabric.

Additional Information

Purpose	ParcelMap BC provides a single-source, up to date representation of titled and surveyed Crown land parcels in British Columbia. This provides for improved speed and efficiency of land-related research province-wide, facilitating planning and business decisions through the current spatial representation of a given parcel and its relationship to adjacent parcels. ParcelMap BC helps support faster and more accurate real property transactions while minimizing possible data discrepancies and confusion by reducing the need to consult separate spatial systems in British Columbia.
Data Quality	ParcelMap BC is the single, complete, trusted and sustainable electronic map of active titled parcels and surveyed provincial Crown land parcels in British Columbia. The data is continually updated by the ParcelMap BC Operations Team at the Land Title and Survey Authority of BC in response to events which change the parcel fabric, including new survey plans accepted from land surveyors. Spatial adjustments are periodically applied to improve the parcel fabric alignment to provincial survey systems and georeferencing standards by using survey information provided on the survey plans and published control monuments.
Lineage Statement	ParcelMap BC data is continually updated by the ParcelMap BC Operations team at the Land Title and Survey Authority of BC. New plans and other parcel fabric updates enter the maintenance queue upon registration or confirmation with an update publication service target of approximately two business days. The B.C. Government currently refreshes this view of the ParcelMap BC data on a weekly cycle (Sundays).

Object Description

Object Name: WHSE_CADASTRE.PMBC_PARCEL_POLY

Short Name: PMBCPCLPOL
Comments: This dataset contains all active titled parcels and surveyed provincial Crown land parcels in BC, including building strata parcels, but excluding parcels that are within the building strata parcel. This dataset is polygonal.

Column Name	Short Name	Data Type	Data Precision	Comments
PMBC_PPL_SYSID	PMBC_PPL_D	NUMBER	10	PARCEL_FABRIC_POLY_ID is a system generated unique identification number.
GLOBAL_UID	GLOBAL_UID	VARCHAR2	254	GLOBAL_UID is a unique global identifier (GUID) for the parcel.
PARCEL_NAME	PARCEL_NM	VARCHAR2	50	PARCEL_NAME is the same as the PID, if there is one. If there is a PIN but no PID, then PARCEL_NAME is the PIN. If there is no PID nor PIN, then PARCEL_NAME is the parcel class value, e.g., COMMON OWNERSHIP, BUILDING STRATA, AIR SPACE, ROAD, PARK.
PLAN_ID	PLAN_ID	NUMBER	10	PLAN_ID is the unique identifier of the land survey plan that corresponds to this parcel.
PLAN_NUMBER	PLN_NMBR	VARCHAR2	128	PLAN_NUMBER is the Land Act, Land Title Act, or Strata Property Act Plan Number for the land survey plan that corresponds to this parcel, e.g., VIP1632, NO_PLAN.
PIN	PIN	NUMBER	10	PIN is the Crown Land Registry Parcel Identifier, if applicable.
PID	PID	CHAR	9	PID is the Land Title Register parcel identifier, a left-zero-padded nine-digit number that uniquely identifies a parcel in the land title register of in British Columbia. The registrar assigns PID numbers to parcels for which a title is being entered as a registered title. The Land Title Act refers to the PID as the permanent parcel identifier.
PID_NUMBER	PID_NUMBER	NUMBER	10	PID_NUMBER is the PID, without leading zeroes. PID is the Land Title Register parcel identifier, a nine-digit number that uniquely identifies a parcel in the land title register of in British Columbia. The registrar assigns PID numbers to parcels for which a title is being entered as a registered title. The Land Title Act refers to the PID as the permanent parcel identifier.
SOURCE_PARCEL_ID	SRC_PRC_ID	VARCHAR2	50	SOURCE_PARCEL_ID is the unique parcel identifier supplied by the source data provider. The value is intended to assist local governments by providing traceability back to the source data provider's parcel ID. It will not be populated during on-going operations, e.g., DATA_NEW, CPG000050, 999, 01762.146.
PARCEL_STATUS	PRCL_STTS	VARCHAR2	20	PARCEL_STATUS is the status of the parcel, according to the Land Title Register or Crown Land Registry, as appropriate, i.e., ACTIVE, CANCELLED, INACTIVE, PENDING.
PARCEL_CLASS	PRCL_CLSS	VARCHAR2	50	PARCEL_CLASS is the Parcel classification for maintenance, mapping, publishing and analysis, i.e., PRIMARY, SUBDIVISION, PART OF PRIMARY, BUILDING STRATA, BARE LAND STRATA, AIR SPACE, ROAD, HIGHWAY, PARK, INTEREST, COMMON OWNERSHIP, ABSOLUTE FEE BOOK, CROWN SUBDIVISION, RETURN TO CROWN.
OWNER_TYPE	OWNER_TYPE	VARCHAR2	50	OWNER_TYPE is the general ownership category, e.g., PRIVATE, CROWN PROVINCIAL, MUNICIPAL.
PARCEL_START_DATE	PRCL_STRTE	DATE	7	PARCEL_START_DATE is the date of the legal event that created the parcel, i.e., the date the plan was filed.
SURVEY_DESIGNATION_1	SRVY_DSGN1	VARCHAR2	30	SURVEY_DESIGNATION_1 is, typically, the smallest division of lands in a survey. If available, this is generally the Parcel from a Subdivided short legal description or the Quadrant or Block from an Unsubdivided short legal description, e.g., PARCEL A, SW4.
SURVEY_DESIGNATION_2	SRVY_DSGN2	VARCHAR2	30	SURVEY_DESIGNATION_2 is, typically, the second smallest division of lands in a survey. If available, this is generally the Lot from a Subdivided short legal description or the District Lot, Lot or Section from an Unsubdivided short legal description, e.g., LOT 2.
