National Road Network Essential Framework Data For Information Display

This information represents activities in the Earth Sciences Sector Programs (2002-2006). Please refer to Priorities for information on current Earth Sciences Sector Programs.

GSDNR provides the National Road Network (NRN) to Statistics Canada, Elections Canada and Canada Post as a key framework to provide a variety of information as well as a foundation to which geographic features can be linked and displayed. In the United States, ESRI is working on a case study with GSDNR that will have international implications. The use of a common NRN model will ensure uniformity and cost efficiency in producing, maintaining and sharing digital road data throughout Canada. Delivery of national framework datasets to meet such client/stakeholder requirements is an output of GSDNR.
