Topographic Boundaries (TOP) Coordinate system: 4326 - "WGS 84" Abstract: Topographic data includes general land-use classifications, building footprints, transportation and utility features, hydrographical features, and physiographical features. Currently there are over 700 topographic coverage areas across the country. Topographic boundaries illustrate urban areas where topographic detail is available from National Topographic Database (NTDB). Note: In 2012, there was a datum change from NAD83 to WGS84.

  Supplemental Information:

  Originally based on 1991 CMA Boundary extents from StatsCan Census. They were adapted over time an updated with the 1996 CMA boundaries and later with Statscan urban area boundaries. Topo boundaries have been modified to be positionally aligned with CanMap Streets.
