Description

Approximately 80% of BC's wetlands are identified on the TRIM maps.The Terrain Resource Information Management Program (TRIM) program is completed as of Dec 17, 1996. The TRIM program produces digital maps, which is a collection of coverages to conform with the BC Geographic System layout. TRIM mapping consists of 7,027 mapsheets covering the province of British Columbia at a scale of 1:20 000. The cartographic framework for this mapping is the Univeral Transverse Mercator coordinate system, based on NAD83 (1983 North American Datum). Each mapsheet is precisely 12 minutes of longitude wide by 6 minutes of latitude high.
