The new BC Register of Historic Places (BCRHP) has been launched with information on over 5,000 registered sites across British Columbia. The move to an online database showcases the diversity of historic sites across the province, and will provide increased access to information about officially recognized or protected historic places in British Columbia.
The new register is built on an open source software that is intuitive and easy-to-use. It is used by jurisdictions across the world to manage cultural heritage data, including Parks Canada (Canadian Register of Historic Places), and Historic England. It offers powerful search and analytic capabilities that will allow you to explore data relationships and generate reports on historic places in B.C. It will also continue to enable the sharing of historic place information with all necessary provincial internal systems (such as, BC Data Catalogue) and external systems (such as, the Canadian Register of Historic Places).
