==Notes==
To see land district boundaries online, consult the province's Online Cadastre System.<ref>[http://webmaps.gov.bc.ca/imf5/imf.jsp?site=olc British Columbia Online Cadastre] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091208132049/http://webmaps.gov.bc.ca/imf5/imf.jsp?site=olc |date=2009-12-08 }} To use this system to view land district boundaries, pan or zoom to the approximate location, or use [Find Location] tab to pick a land district by name. Open [Layers] tab along dark blue navigation bar, then open the "Administrative Boundaries" folder and select "Land Districts (outlined)", also click "pointer" (will highlight turquoise). To substantially speed up refresh time, deselect survey parcels, cadastral fabric (etc) that might be part of the default suite; to remove the map grid, open the "Base Map" folder and deselect "Grids". Whenever you make a change to the base, scroll to bottom of folders list and [Refresh Map] or select [Automatically Refresh Map]</ref>
