TELUS is the designated top-level GIS data aggregator for BC, as mandated by the CRTC. An aggregator collects and validates information for 9-1-1, ensuring the data meets public safety GIS data standards and best practices for content and management.

Note: The aggregator will validate your data, and if discrepancies are identified it will be returned to you for verification and updating. The aggregator should not change data without your approval. The ultimate responsibility for the accuracy, completeness and currency of the GIS data used by NG9-1-1 is the local authoritative source. For more information, please review the GIS & Common Addressing FAQ (v4) from the Emergency Services [9-1-1] Working Group.
