The ‘Strathcona County Parks’ dataset contains outdoor areas of land that support active and passive recreational activities that are owned or operated by Strathcona County. It includes all natural and human-made landscaping, facilities and structures consistent with the general purpose of public park land whether or not the facilities are publicly operated or operated by other organizations pursuant to arrangements with the public authority owning the park. This will include but is not limited to municipal parks, schools, community halls, storm water management facilities, urban forests and protected areas. The boundaries of the ‘Park’ are typically related to the parcel boundaries as defined by zoning/Order-in-Council/other cadastre but there may be exceptions. Please note, there may be some ‘parks’ (protected areas, natural reserves, crown reservations, etc) that will not be included in this data layer if they are not owned or operated by Strathcona County.

Single line representations of water pressurized pipes in water system. The pressurized pipes deliver fresh water from water reservoirs to residential and commercial areas in Strathcona County.

These data represent the operational pressure zones used by Strathcona County utilities. These boundaries indicate the isolates areas within the water network, which are physically isolated by closed valves. Boundaries should be drawn through valves and along parcel lines to indicate which lots will be within a particular zone.

“Splash Parks" are outdoor areas designated for water recreation that are owned by Strathcona County. Typically, a splash park (also referred to as a spray park) is a concrete area with water pipes, jets, colourful characters, and other items that move water by shooting, spraying, trickling, or other similar means. They are typically focused for children but all residents are welcome. Splash parks are usually within a 'park' but not always. This data set does not include areas like outdoor swimming pools, or water recreation features that people do not interact with such as decorative fountains. Splash park features are represented as points.

Points representing valves that are used to isolate portions of the water systems.   Water system valves are primarily used to control (open or close) the flow of water supply.
