How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

  • National and provincial parks. A park at 0 km touches or overlaps the town’s outline; directions point from the town’s centre.
  • Private land. Areas held by land trusts or private owners stay unnamed here, though they count in the shares.
  • Walking routes. Only named route relations count; a park’s own path network may not show unless it is mapped as a route.
  • Protected land. Protected here means in CPCAD, Canada’s official list: parks, reserves, wildlife areas and other conserved land, measured within 10 km of the town’s edge.
