Providing Online Data Access To Help Meet the Land and Resource Management Needs of the Nicola Tribal Association's Nlaka'pamux Communities
This project will catalogue cultural and traditional location-based ("geospatial") information from communities into logical data sets and merge them into one database. By streamlining access to this data, the database will assist communities in managing and sustaining resources. The project will also promote new levels of resource stewardship and management by:
- ensuring that data used in resource planning reflects cultural, traditional, and ecological resource interests; and
- linking with other existing geospatial data developed by provincial and federal agencies.
This project will connect data to the Canadian Geospatial Data Infrastructure (CGDI) in accordance with CGDI-endorsed standards, enabling approved users from across Canada to access the resource-planning information.
