This boundary file has been made to show all the provincial parks and park reserves in Manitoba. Within each park, specific areas have been designated as one of eight land use categories, which sets out what general types of activities can take place there. The parks may be split into a variety of land use categories. The shapefile is constantly being revised and updated.
The Land Use Categories within Provincial Parks Manitoba digital boundary layer was created in 1997. The boundaries of this layer were delineated using best available maps and Director of Survey Plans. All of the lands within Manitoba's provincial parks are assigned a land use category (LUC) based on the main purpose of the area. (a) Wilderness LUC: The main purpose of the area is to protect representative or unique natural landscapes in an undisturbed state, and provide recreational opportunities that depend on a pristine environment. (b) Backcountry LUC: The main purpose of the area is to protect examples of natural landscapes and provide basic facilities and trails for nature-oriented recreation in a largely undisturbed environment. (c) Recreational Development LUC: The main purpose of the area is to accommodate recreational development. (d) Resource Management LUC: The main purpose of the area is to permit commercial resource development or extraction in a manner that does not compromise the main purpose of the park classification. (e) Heritage LUC: The main purpose of the area is to protect a unique or representative site containing a resource or resources of cultural or heritage value. (f) Access LUC: The main purpose of the area is to provide a point or route of access in a provincial park or a location for a lodge and associated facilities.

A geodatabase was created with the existing heading and data structure originating from the 2007 Manitoba Protected Areas boundary layer (Pa_20070725). Those headings and structures were then adjusted to meet Conservation Area Reporting and Tracking System (CARTS) standards, and further manipulated to conform with a Disk Operating System (DOS) based naming system of no more than 8 characters. A new LUC Schema was created based on input from the Parks and Natural Areas Branch, and the previous LUC layer from 2007 was loaded into the geodatabase with the appropriate fields matched to their new current fields, the national parks have been removed.
