Geophysical Lines (Proposed)

Geophysical exploration is an oil and gas activity under the Energy Resources Activities Act (ERAA) and is specifically defined in the Petroleum and Natural Gas Act (PNG) Act as investigation of the subsurface by seismic, gravimetric, magnetic, electric and geochemical operations and by any other method approved by the BC Energy Regulator, but does not include the use of geophysical well logs, vertical seismic profile surveys or other surveys obtained from a well. This dataset contains line features for proposed applications collected through the BC Energy Regulator's Application Management System (AMS). Column Name: GEO_NUMBER Short Name: GEO_NUM Data Type: VARCHAR2 Data Precision: 16 Data Comments: GEO_NUMBER is the number provided by the BC Energy Regulator and assigned to the geophysical program. The number is included on the application permit and all operations and final plan documentation, e.g., 2001-105. Column Name: PROGRAM_NAME Short Name: PROG_NAME Data Type: VARCHAR2 Data Precision: 60 Data Comments: PROGRAM_NAME is the program name provided by the operator to the BC Energy Regulator. The name is included on the application permit and all operations and final plan documentation, e.g., Cheves Creek 3D. Column Name: PROGRAM_TYPE Short Name: PROG_TYPE Data Type: VARCHAR2 Data Precision: 8 Data Comments: PROGRAM_TYPE is the type of geophysical program, i.e., 2D, 3D. Column Name: LINE_TYPE Short Name: LINE_TYPE Data Type: VARCHAR2 Data Precision: 20 Data Comments: LINE_TYPE indicates whether geophysical lines are source, receiver or a combination of both, e.g., SOURCE. Column Name: CUT_TYPE Short Name: CUT_TYPE Data Type: VARCHAR2 Data Precision: 8 Data Comments: CUT_TYPE is a code indicating whether a line already exists or is newly cut and the clearing method used, e.g., NCC (New Cat Cut). Column Name: CUT_TYPE_DESC Short Name: CUT_DESC Data Type: VARCHAR2 Data Precision: 80 Data Comments: CUT_TYPE_DESC is a description indicating whether a line already exists or is newly cut and the clearing method used, e.g., New Cat Cut (NCC). Column Name: LINE_WIDTH Short Name: LINE_WIDTH Data Type: NUMBER Data Precision: 38 Data Comments: LINE_WIDTH is the width of the geophysical seismic line measured in meters. Column Name: APPLICATION_NUMBER Short Name: APPL_NUM Data Type: NUMBER Data Precision: 10 Data Comments: APPLICATION_NUMBER is a unique application number that is generated automatically for each application submitted in the Commission's Application Management System, e.g., 100100067. Column Name: APPLICATION_TYPE Short Name: APPL_TYPE Data Type: VARCHAR2 Data Precision: 80 Data Comments: APPLICATION_TYPE is the type of application submitted by the applicant to the Commission's Automated Management System, e.g., New OGAA. Column Name: APPLICATION_STATUS Short Name: APPL_STAT Data Type: VARCHAR2 Data Precision: 80 Data Comments: APPLICATION_STATUS is the status of the application prior to Approval, e.g., In Review. Column Name: APPLICATION_SUBMITTED_DATE Short Name: APPL_DATE Data Type: DATE Data Precision: 7 Data Comments: APPLICATION_SUBMITTED_DATE is the date the application is submitted to the Commission by the applicant. Column Name: REVISION_NUMBER Short Name: REV_NUM Data Type: NUMBER Data Precision: 5 Data Comments: REVISION_NUMBER is the number of times the application has been altered prior to approval. Column Name: APPLICATION_DETERMINATION_NUM Short Name: AD_NUM Data Type: VARCHAR2 Data Precision: 18 Data Comments: APPLICATION_DETERMINATION_NUM is a number assigned to an approved or permitted activity or to a set of activities included in a multi-activity application, e.g., 100082189. Column Name: PROPONENT Short Name: PROPONENT Data Type: VARCHAR2 Data Precision: 120 Data Comments: PROPONENT is the organization name of the oil and gas operator, e.g., ARC Resources Ltd. Column Name: AUTHORITY_TYPE Short Name: AUTH_TYPE Data Type: VARCHAR2 Data Precision: 8 Data Comments: AUTHORITY_TYPE is the type of authorization issued by the Commission. Authorizations are issued either under the Energy Resources Activities Act (ERAA) or the Canada Energy Regulator (NEB), e.g., ERAA. Column Name: LAND_TYPE Short Name: LAND_TYPE Data Type: VARCHAR2 Data Precision: 8 Data Comments: LAND_TYPE is a value indicating whether the oil and gas application is on Private or Crown land, i.e., PRIV, CRWN. Column Name: DATA_SOURCE Short Name: DATA_SRC Data Type: VARCHAR2 Data Precision: 10 Data Comments: DATA_SOURCE is the data capture method used to collect the spatial application data submitted to the Commission, i.e., GPSD (GPS-Differential), GPSND (GPS-Non Differential), ORTHO (Ortho Photography), CGWC (Coordinate Geometry With Control), SNK (Source Not Known). Column Name: FEATURE_LENGTH_M Short Name: LENGTH_M Data Type: NUMBER Data Precision: 19 Data Comments: FEATURE_LENGTH_M is the system calculated length or perimeter of a geometry in meters.
