Listing of Historic Resources: Instructions for Use
Historical Resource Value ranging from 1 to 5. The highest level of protection (HRV 1) is afforded to lands that have been designated under the Act as Provincial Historic Resources. An HRV of 1 is also used to identify World Heritage Sites and lands owned by ACCS for historic resource protection and promotion purposes. Other HRVs are defined as follows: HRV 2: designated under the Act as a Municipal or Registered Historic Resource; HRV 3: contains a significant historic resource that will likely require avoidance; HRV 4: contains a historic resource that may require avoidance; HRV 5: believed to contain a historic resource NOTE: Undeveloped road allowances have the same HRV as lands immediately adjacent.

Road Allowances have been dissolved into the associated adjacent LSD to allow for gapless spatial representation of features. Symbolization and Record Order The order of data in the GIS layer differs from the order of the tabular datasets. The HRV values from HRV 5 to HRV 1 are drawn to ensure that the more significant areas are shown above those of lower significance (ie: HRV1 > HRV5). Provincial Boundary All features of the listing have been clipped to the Province of Alberta boundary. For features that fall across this boundary, the spatial representation is only within Alberta, however, the ATS attributes still reflect the full coverage of the feature. National Historic Sites of Canada As of September 2011, the National Historic Sites of Canada have been incorporated into the listing as HRV 3 historic sites. CFB Suffield Area As of September 2011, the area of CFB Suffield is included in the Listing of Historic Resources. Instructions for use of this data product can be accessed at https://www.alberta.ca/listing-historic-resources.aspxs.

The classification of LSD grids by HRV value and category is programmatically derived from the numerous source datasets created and maintained by Culture and Tourism. Once the algorithm is run to generate the thematic data, it is cross referenced against the source datasets to ensure that the classification is correct. Further, subjec matter experts are required to give their approval of the representation of their specific category before publication of this listing.

The Listing of Historic Resources is automatically generated with a custom application that spatially selects LSDs from the Alberta Township System grid using a number of spatial feature classes maintained by Alberta Culture and Tourism (CT). These feature classes include: archaeological sites, traditional use sites, Register of Historic Places, high potential lands, Historic Resources Management Areas, Ammonite Shell Agreements, and sensitivity for palaeontological resources. Attributes of these feature classes, most importantly "Historic Resource Value", are associated with the LSD spatial data, resulting in categorized and classified polygons that constitute the Listing of Historic Resources.
Python scripts used to process the Listing replaced with FME Tools processes of equivalent function. Addition of steps to determine reason for inclusion or exclusion of particular LSDs.
FME Tools spatial processing has proven to be more precise in determination of intersects. Processing also makes full use of multi-core processing and high availability of RAM to allow processes to run much faster. The processing environment also yields much more valuable diagnostic feedback. New processes enable better tracking to determine cause of inclusion or exclusion of particular LSDs.

The Listing of Historic Resources is automatically generated with a custom application that spatially selects LSDs from the Alberta Township System grid (v4.1, derived LSD dataset with dissolved Road Allowances) using a number of spatial feature classes maintained by Alberta Culture and Community Spirit (ACCS). These feature classes include: archaeological sites, traditional use sites, Register of Historic Places, high potential lands, Historic Resources Management Areas, Ammonite Shell Agreements, and sensitivity for palaeontological resources. Attributes of these feature classes, most importantly "Historic Resource Value", are linked with the LSD spatial data, resulting in the polygons that constitute the Listing of Historic Resources. The polygons are generlized into individual records based on the ATS section, but specific to the LSD in shape and attribute.

Custom java program replaced with custom python application and review of business rules to generate the Listing of Historic Resource in ArcGIS 10.3.1.
Due to deprecation of the java libraries supporting the generation of the listing and the move from 9.3.1 to 10.3.1 in ESRI ArcGIS software, a complete recreation of the listing process was required.
