The boundaries are digitized from CanMap®. Purpose: Canada Provinces provides the provinces and territories of Canada with detail appropriate for national, regional, and local levels. This is a subset of the original dataset. It has been clipped to the extent of the Gulf of Maine surficial sediment GIS project area. It is used as a general basemap data layer to illustrate the Canadian provinces, boundaries and coastline for the Gulf of Maine Surficial Sediment GIS project area. Supplemental_Information: This is a subset of the original dataset. It has been clipped to the extent of the Gulf of Maine surficial sediment GIS project area. Largest scale when displaying the data: 1:50,000.

Process_Date: 20001020 Source_Produced_Citation_Abbreviation: DMTI Spatial Inc. - 2 to 50 Process_Step: Process_Description: The following steps were performed by ESRI for Data & Maps 2002: removed erroneous island at 80 N 135 W, changed "Newfoundland" to "Newfoundland and Labrador", and deleted sliver polygons. The following steps were performed by ESRI: Extracted data set from DMTI Spatial Canadian Data Bundle. Reduced the width of Name attribute. Added Area attribute calculating its values in square kilometers. Added Fips_admin attribute from FIPS 10-4 tables. Added Pop1996 and Dwell1996 attributes aggregating their values from Canada Municipalities. Created ArcGIS™ layer file (.lyr). Created ArcView legend file (.avl). Created projection file (.prj). Ran ArcView Avenue request ExportClean, and created spatial indices. Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: DMTI Spatial Inc. - 2 to 50 Process_Date: 20020131 Process_Step: Process_Description: The orignal shapefile was clipped to include only those provinces falling within the Gulf of Maine surficial sediment GIS project area.
