In the modern world, we tend to expect that digital data presented to us is accurate. This natural expectation carries over to geospatial data, and more specifically – property boundary information. The reality, however, is that those who rely on boundary data – designers, planners, engineers, construction teams, recordkeepers, and many others – are regularly forced to make judgment calls based on information that may or may not be accurate.
This presentation and discussion will shed light on the different flavours of geospatial boundary datasets that we frequently encounter. It will touch upon ‘Legal Surveys’ and the role of a Licensed Ontario Land Surveyor. Through case studies, attendees will be introduced to the dangers of misusing data that may mimic accurate boundary/property information. The session will also provide guidelines aimed at limiting and possibly avoiding the dangers altogether.
