Status of MRB Digital Products as of August 1, 2006
The Geological Services Division has been working on converting our digital products from the six degree Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) zone 20 projection and North American Datum (NAD)1927 to the NAD83 datum. Unless otherwise indicated on the download page all of our products are now in the NAD83 datum. The updated versions of these data sets are now available for download free from the MRB website at https://novascotia.ca/natr/meb/download/gis-data-maps.asp. In the process of doing this, many of our digital products have been given a new digital product number. All of the maps and databases that did not previously have the ESRI shapefile format (SHP) available now have it available for download. Some have had other modifications as well. Following is a list of the old and new product numbers along with comments on some changes to the data:
Digital Products in BLACK were included in August 2006 release
Digital Products in RED were not included in the August 2006 release
Digital Products in BLUE have been withdrawn
