Coastal Resource Information Management System
The British Columbia Coastal Resource Information System is an internet based interactive map for viewing coastal and marine data. A wide variety of coast and marine resources are included, such as aquaculture, shoreline classification, selected fisheries information, and offshore oil and gas information.
The development of the Coastal Resource Information System is ongoing. The application provides access to data currently held on MSRMs Land and Resource Data Warehouse (LRDW). As additional layers are added to the LRDW, subsequent releases of the application will include these additional layers and further enhancements.
