Hydrographic chart of Burrard Inlet, British Columbia, 1900

In 1883, the government began to carry out general hydrographic surveys, and the charts resulting from those surveys were published "by order of the Government of the Dominion of Canada" in the British Admiralty’s series of hydrographic charts. Canada’s own hydrographic service was created in 1904.
