Classified Land Ownership

Alberta Environment and Parks, Government of Alberta 20230117 Classified Land Ownership vector digital data Edmonton, Alberta Alberta Environment and Parks, Government of Alberta BF_CROWN_CLASS_OWNER_POLYGON https://geospatial.alberta.ca/phobos/rest/services/cadastre/classified_land_ownership/MapServer This data set is a classification of the ownership parcels from the Land Ownership data set. Classification is based on Certificates of Titles that are in the name of municipal, federal and provincial crown agencies. Alberta Land Titles supplied an XML export from their land titles database containing only crown "owned" and Nonpatent parcels. The polygonal extents are compiled in the Alberta Data Partnerships Ltd. (ADP) Urban and Rural Cadastral Mapping Program using the compiled cadastral layers as base information. This layer does not contain information for the municipalities of Edmonton or Calgary. The information for these municipalities is managed by each municipality independently. This dataset provides the user with a snapshot view of parcels of land within the province of Alberta that are titled directly to the Crown or by default owned by the Crown (untitled land). All polygonal features have an associated Land Identification Numeric Code (LINC) . LINC is a unique, non-intelligent system generated number having no inherent meaning that is assigned to each parcel of land in the ALTA database. The LINC number remains as a permanent identifier of a parcel until the parcel boundaries are changed. LINC numbers that start with "00" indicate that a document (e.g. Certificate of Title or Nonpatent document) is registered against the parcel represented by the polygon. Polygons that represent parcels without documents registered against it do not have this prefix and are considered untitled crown land. All releases after December 2011 have had former Alberta Government Agencies removed from the crown classification of "Provincial". These include: Alberta Conservation Association, Alberta Housing Corporation, Alberta Social Housing Corporation, Board Of Directors Of The Bow River Irrigation District, Board Of Directors of the Taber Irrigation District, Board of Trustees of the Lethbridge Northern Irrigation District, The Board of Directors of St. Mary River Irrigation District en 20221213 ground condition Complete Quarterly -121.000000 -109.000000 61.000000 48.000000 -121.000000 -109.000000 48.000000 61.000000 ISO 19115 Topic Category planningCadastre none Crown Ownership Crown Parcels Crown Classified Ownership Government of Alberta departments and authorized agencies may have conditional access to this data for internal business purposes.

Alberta Environment and Parks, Government of Alberta Government of Alberta Data and Information Security Classification Protected A ESRI ArcCatalog 9.3.1.3500 Alberta Environment and Parks, Government of Alberta Land Ownership Edmonton, Alberta Alberta Environment and Parks, Government of Alberta These are the polygonal extents for the parcels of land within the province of Alberta. This data can be broken down into two classifications. Parcels of land that have a Certificate of Title associated with them at Alberta Land Titles and those that do not. They can be distinguished from each other by the LINC number. Titled parcels have a "00" prefix for their LINC number while untitled do not. Feature Class The boundaries of Classified Land Ownership polygons are compiled by Alberta Data Partnerships Ltd. (ADP), based on interpretation of the boundary locations defined in Land Titles Office Registered Certificates of Title. In many cases, the boundaries are derived from the Cadastral mapping data layers. In cases where a boundary cannot be derived from the Cadastral mapping layers, the boundary is created by ADP from descriptive information provided in the Registered Certificate of Title. Classification attribution of Classified Land Ownership polygons is derived by checking against Alberta Land Titles Office Ownership Database XML data exports provided to Alberta Environment and Parks that identifies Provincial Crown titled land, Provincial Non Patent land, Municipal Crown titled land and Federal titled land. Reverse lookups have been used to determine that all crown parcel records in the Alberta Land Titles Office XML files have been accounted for. The Classified Land Ownership dataset presents a snapshot of the classified ownership polygons at the time that this dataset was compiled for Alberta Environment and Parks. At the time of compilation, this data set was subject to the logical consistency and completeness considerations that affect Cadastral mapping and Land Ownership compilation, in terms of currency turnaround and issue resolution and no agreement on update or update frequency has been reached with Land Titles Office. Horizontal positional accuracy ranges from less than 0.15 metres in urban areas to up to 3.0 metres in rural areas. 0.15 metres In urban areas, the high volume and more current survey plans enable more accurate determination of the position of Cadastral mapping limits that define ownership limits. For boundaries created from descriptions in the Registered Certificate of Title, similar magnitudes of value are expected, but cannot be as definitively quantified. 3.0 metres In rural areas, the lower volume and less current survey plans result in less accurate determination of the position of Cadastral mapping limits that define ownership limits. For boundaries created from descriptions in the Registered Certificate of Title, similar magnitudes of value are expected, but cannot be as definitively quantified. Alberta Data Partnerships Ltd.(ADP) Land Ownership layer Alberta Land Titles Office Ownership Database (ALTA) XML files The Alberta Land Titles Office supplied XML files are converted to Microsoft Access files. Using ArcGIS, the title information in the Microsoft Access files are joined to the Land Ownership polygons using the common LINC field in both data sets. The polygons are then classified. Untitled polygons default to crown ownership. This is determined by searching for LINC numbers that do not contain the "00" prefix. The appropriate crown classification is then applied depending on which Access database (Provincial Titled, Federal Titled, Municipal Titled and Provincial Nonpatent) is being joined to the Land Ownership spatial data. The parcel's short legal descriptor; the name of the crown agency and its address as supplied from Alberta Land Titles is also transferred to the polygons. All parcels remaining unclassified that contain LINC numbers starting with the prefix "00" are classified as "Private" ownership.
