The CMN helps communities in British Columbia and Canada map sensitive habitats and species distributions using customized data entry and digitizing tools integrated with links to local/remote data sets, WMS sources, geo-referenced videos and SHIM projects. The Atlas Gallery now has over seventy user friendly atlases. By providing accurate and up to date information, the CMN and its many partners will help plan sustainable communities.  Continue reading about the Community Mapping Network.  

Internet Explorer Users: Every browser on the planet except Internet Explorer works with the CMN web atlases but there is a fix. Google has an extension for IE called "Google Chrome Frame". If you have to use IE becuase your IT department requires it this link will provide the answer and IE will work much faster - better yet just use Chrome or Firefox on you PC and on a Mac Safari & Chrome are the best.

Featured Atlas:             Fraser Valley Watersheds Atlas 

The Fraser Valley Regional District (FVRD) is working with the the Community Mapping Network (CMN), the Fraser Valley Watersheds Coalition (FVWC), and Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) to support the Fraser Valley Watersheds Atlas. The Watersheds Atlas will help improve the health and sustainability of watersheds throughout the Fraser Valley using watershed planning, enhancement and restoration projects, partnership building, community stewardship, education and awareness. The four partners, with funding from the Real Estate Foundation of BC, are building a district-wide Watersheds Atlas with up to date environmental information compiled from the member municipalities, senior agencies and other available sources.
