The 1M Urban Service Area 1:1,733,371 to 1:433,343 layer represents the polygon area of urban service areas within the Province of Alberta.
The graphic symbolization is determined by a feature class created by Alberta Environment and Parks, Provincial Geospatial Center, Geoadministrative Unit and is visible between the scales of 1:1,733,371 to 1:433,343.

The formation of an Urban Service Area can occur if there is a large unincorporated community within a Specialized Municipality that is recognized as an equivalent to a City by the Government of Alberta. It has a population, public utility services, and other characteristics.
