Purpose:
For use in monitoring and maintaining Licences and Permits, may be used for planning and resource allocation. The purpose it to track all the permits and licences physical location in detail and have some basic information about each. The purpose of the re-class from pitquar to this new version called Aggregate Site Authorize is to ensure that the data is 100% correct or as near to be as possible. The whole idea is to get rid of all the garbage that was cluttering up the pitquar data class by making a rule that only those that can be validated by ALPS shall be entered. The ultimate purpose being to create a useful aggregate data class that people can actual use.

Supplemental Information:
Additional Time Period Information: Original data came from OBM maps from the early 1990's. This was entered into the original NRVIS data class pitquar, which was updated continually. The pitquar data class was then re-structured into several other data classes of which this is one in 2005. It has been partially migrated over, and is being updated continually. As of December 2010 an automated link was established connecting the Aggregate Licence and Permit System (ALPS) with the Aggregate Site Authorized layer available in LIO and NRVIS. This means that any tabular information that is altered within ALPS will automatically be updated to the layer, but will only occur for the sites that have already been populated in the layer.
