Cadastral Mapping
While MNC solutions are continually evolving and maturing, they are grounded in our core service offerings, which include Cadastral and Title /Parcel Mapping. The Provincial Cadastral Map base is a compilation of all plans of survey registered with Alberta Land Titles. Together with its partner AltaLIS, MNC is responsible for the continuous maintenance of the provincial cadastral base under the umbrella of Spatial Data Warehouse (SDW).
New plans of survey are continuously updated in the cadastral base almost immediately after a plan of survey is registered with Alberta Land Titles. Currently 85% of plans are entered into the base within 24 hours of registration. To date, over 142,000 (digital) plans of survey have been integrated into the Provincial cadastral base.
The datasets we manage are an essential base component for a number of existing and planned AM, FM, and GIS initiatives; especially those used by the Alberta Government and major Utility companies.
The business knowledge intrinsic to the MNC team assured the success of the restructuring of the provincial cadastral datasets. To achieve this goal, MNC undertook the significant challenges associated with cleaning and restructuring the provincial data to create an accurate, seamless and integrated digital land base. In addition, they continually strive to be certain all of the Provincial datasets maintained by AltaLIS are completely in-sync with each other. The benefits realized by the Province of Alberta and other users, as a result of the re-engineered Cadastral maintenance processes include:
- Data maintenance fees which are less than half the
Province's previous costs
- A process and mechanism whereby reduced maintenance
costs are recoverable
- A considerably more efficient turnaround time; data
is now available within hours and days of registration rather than
months
- Data quality and formats have been significantly
improved; the quality of the data is completely GIS ready and loads
directly into user systems
- MNC sponsored data standards now ensure data quality
over time and over the breadth of a large geographical territory in the
Province of Alberta
