description: FWMIS hydrography layers are spatial representations of mapped waterbodies within the province of Alberta. Fish and Wildlife Management Information System (FWMIS) - Hydrology polygons is a derived dataset from the Base Features Waterbody Polygon (Base Waterbody Polygon) dataset. Base Waterbody Polygon is the Alberta Environment and Parks base hydrography polygon dataset, and comprises seamless provincial extent hydrography polygon features collected from various sources of provincial base and resource map based data and some federal topographic data. FWMIS Hydropolygon has been modified for Fish and Wildlife business purposes, where spatial adjustments and field attributes have been added or removed as required. Modifications include, but are not limited to, the addition of a 'Species Presence' field, edits to spatial and aspatial components, removal of topological error, and semi-annual maintenance as required. Please note that this layer may not be suitable for mapping or spatial analysis as its intent is to provide waterbody information pertaining to fish presence or the possibility of future fish presence findings. FWMIS Simplified Hydrology Arcs is a derived layer from the FWMIS Hydrology Arcs feature class, which in turn is a derived layer from the BFD SLNet Hydrography. FWMIS Simplified Hydrology Arcs has been modified for Fish and Wildlife business purposes, where spatial adjustments and field attributes have been added or removed as required. Modifications include, but are not limited to, the addition of a 'Species Presence' field, edits to spatial and aspatial components, removal of topological error, and semi-annual maintenance as required. 'Species Presence' is updated quarterly (approximate) or as new information becomes available. Please note that this layer may not be suitable for mapping or spatial analysis as its intent is to provide waterbody information pertaining to fish presence or the possibility of future fish presence findings.
