Agricultural Zone Boundaries Transposed to Quebec Cadastre

Government and Municipalities of Québec provides a digital transposition of agricultural zone boundaries onto the renovated Quebec Cadastre. The project establishes correspondence between the official 1:20,000 cadastral compilation and the updated cadastre for operational use in geomatic systems.

Use Cases

• Analyze spatial correspondence between agricultural zone boundaries and renovated cadastral parcels for land management planning.
• Integrate transposed agricultural zone limits into geomatic systems for operational services and stakeholder coordination.
• Use the digital boundary layer as a reference for agricultural land assessments relative to the official Quebec Cadastre.

Strengths

• Data is integrated into the Commission's operational geomatic systems, indicating practical utility.
• Project was undertaken in collaboration with Municipal Regional Counties (MRCs), suggesting multi-stakeholder alignment.
• Digital version provides a transposed reference layer derived from the official 1:20,000 cadastral compilation.

Limitations

• The transposed boundaries are not a merit-based review of the agricultural zone, potentially perpetuating existing delineations.
• Sample data and specific row/column counts are unavailable, limiting assessment of dataset scale and structure.
• Official source remains the 1:20,000 plans; this dataset is a derived operational reference.
