ArcGIS compatible data (preferably polygons) of municipal boundaries / urban landcover for Southern Vancouver Island

Question

A student is requesting the following data file:
"ArcGIS compatible data (preferably polygons) of municipal boundaries / urban landcover for Southern Vancouver Island".

Where can relevant data be found?

Answer

Check out the FTP site under the folder "geography," select 2001 and then spatial. There one can find all the mapinfo and arcinfo files for GIS.

The files are organised by level of geography - assess which best suits the student's needs. If additional levels of geography are required, but not found in the folder, they are likely not part of the DLI collection.
