The Postal Code Conversion File (PCCF) provides the correspondence between the six character code and Statistics Canada's standard geographical areas (e.g. Census divisions, Census subdivisions, Federal Electoral Districts) for which census data and other statistics are produced.The latest version of the PCCF [at time of writing] links over 787,000 postal code records, created up to the end of November 2006, to the geographical areas used in the 1996 Census and to Universal Transverse Mercator System (UTM) coordinates and latitude/longitude coordinates. This version contains a new field called the single postal code indicator; this field will be useful in cases where a given postal code is assigned to multiple standard geographic areas. It indicates which of the standard geographic units is the most representative of the postal code.

The Postal code/1996 federal riding file is a digital file which provides a link between the six character postal code and Canada's federal ridings. The current version of the file links 701,002 postal code records, existing as of May 1998, to the 301 federal ridings.The file was conceived as a tool for use with administrative files containing postal codes. By using the postal code as a link, data from administrative files may be organized and/or tabulated by federal riding. Using this tool, federal government departments will be able to respond more quickly and easily to MP's requests for information about their ridings.
