Title: City of Ottawa 1:2,000 Topograhic Data

Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data

Publication_Place: Ottawa, ON

Publisher: City of Ottawa

Description:

Abstract:

1:2,000 scale topographic files are available as individual tiles in "dwg" and "dgn" formats. The files cover the urban area of the city of Ottawa. The Map series was originally by the National Capital Commission and then joint with the Regional Municipality of Ottawa-Carleton; in 1999 by the RMOC only and with amalgamation in 2001 now by the City of Ottawa. No attribute data is included with the data. Also available in shapefile format are contiguous files. Files are seamless but there will be inconsistencies in coverage (edge matching) due to the difference in dates as the data was collected at different years.

Purpose:

This digital data set is potentially useful as a general base map on which you can plot your own features of interest.
