Cadastre, survey control and engineering survey in urban areas, typically in all municipalities that previously comprised the 73 Municipal Integrated Surveying and Mapping (MISAM) areas, also known as urban cadastral map areas. For rural areas use UTM.
If used for rural area control markers, area of use is amended to between 116°W and 112°W; however use of NAD27 / UTM zones 11N and 12N (CRS codes 26711 and 26712) is encouraged in these rural areas.
Canada - Alberta - between 115°30'W and 112°30'W.
