Fisheries and Oceans Canada details Important Areas for key fish species in the West Coast Vancouver Island ecoregion. The data, used to inform the selection of marine Ecologically and Biologically Significant Areas, was mapped based on expert rankings of Uniqueness, Aggregation, and Fitness Consequences criteria. Initial assessments occurred from 2004-2005, with subsequent efforts in 2009.
Available in multiple geospatial formats (HTML, ESRI REST, PDF, GEOJSON, FGDB/GDB). License is ca-ogl-lgo (Open Government Licence - Canada). Should be treated as a separate effort from related assessments in other regions like PNCIMA.
