Online Cadastre is the new Internet based interactive map for viewing cadastre on your computer.

Online Cadastre provides internet access to British Columbia Crown land cadastral information with a hyperlink from Online Cadastre to Tantalis GATOR (please note the hyperlink to Tantalis GATOR from Online Cadastre is available for government of British Columbia employees only at this time).

The next version will enable public access to Tantalis GATOR from Online Cadastre.

The Tantalis GATOR system provides access to scanned original documents and detailed Crown cadastre information. Tantalis GATOR is a fee based Internet application that requires pre-registration before use.

Oct. 9 /02 We are offering a "Internet Payment Plan" option for accessing Tantalis GATOR. Since rolling out the Tantalis GATOR tool in June of 2000, payments for access have only been available for those interested in an annual subscription. An electronic payment option is now available. Clients will be able to register for access on-line and provide a credit card number. Charges will then be processed to the client's credit card, for any images accessed and time spent browsing the Registry through Tantalis GATOR. Clients will no longer need to pay for Registry access in advance. Tantalis GATOR will also provide an on-line listing of client account transactions.
Oct. 1/01

We have prepared a spreadsheet of the listings of Hudson Bay Company Grants. This spreadsheet indicates the grant document number, the parcel identification number (PIN) and the parcel legal description. Any of these three identifiers can be used in Tantalis GATOR to easily locate the images for these unique grants.
