In this context, the word disturbance includes characterization of anthropogenic developments and a set of natural impacts that have changed the landscape in Northeastern British Columbia.

Additional Information

Purpose	This spatial dataset has been developed through collaboration with partners from both the Environmental Stewardship Initiative in the Northeast (RSEA) project team, which includes representatives from the Province of British Columbia, Treaty 8 First Nations, industry proponents and the RSEA Data Management Working Group. These groups have a diverse set of decision support requirements that benefit from spatial data that characterizes where the landscape has been modified through development activities or selected natural factors by 2018.
Data Quality	Refer to the Product Summary Table in Section 1.10 of the methodology documentation for a summary of each data theme, their limitations and confidence level. The methodology document is available along with the data at the download link above.
