Membership expanded to include First Nations and other organizations that benefit from sharing an integration of cadastral data. Members submit land parcel (cadastral), infrastructure and address data for sharing to the ICI Society and this contributed data is then integrated into a feature class, multilayer geospatial fabric, which is accessible back to members.

The Board is comprised of representatives who come from provincial and local governments, provincial and utility member segments and First Nations.
