About this data
The Wood Buffalo map shows all reported incidents recorded on the latest day, 26 August 2026. These points come from the RCMP K‑Division public point layer, which publishes property‑offence incidents for the census subdivision. Because the feed excludes person‑crime offences, the map reflects only theft‑related activity captured by the RCMP.
On this day the open‑data feed recorded three incidents, all classified as theft. The 24‑hour snapshot offers a quick view of current property‑crime activity and can help residents and analysts spot immediate patterns, especially when compared with the broader 60‑day rolling window that contains 247 incidents.

Year‑over‑year change is not available for the latest‑day snapshot because the year series contains data for only 2026, so there is no complete prior year to compare against. Consequently, no percentage change can be reported for this 24‑hour period.

FAQ
How many incidents were reported on the latest day (2026‑08‑26)?
The open‑data feed recorded three incidents on the latest day, 26 August 2026, and all three were classified as theft. This figure reflects the city‑level total for that 24‑hour period; the broader year‑to‑date count for 2026 (through July) is 668 incidents, according to the dataset.
What type of crime was most common on that day?
The most frequently reported offence on that day was theft, accounting for all three incidents (100 % of the total). Because the RCMP K‑Division feed only captures property‑related crimes, theft is the sole category appearing in the 24‑hour snapshot in the open‑data set.
Is there a year‑over‑year change in incident counts?
A year‑over‑year change cannot be reported for Wood Buffalo because the archive currently contains data for only a single calendar year (2026). With no prior year to compare, the YoY metric is not available for this period at this time.
Why aren’t neighbourhood‑level statistics shown?
Neighbourhood‑level breakdowns are not shown because the RCMP K‑Division point layer does not include geographic segmentation beyond the city boundary. Consequently, the open‑data feed cannot provide incident counts for individual neighbourhoods or sub‑area as of the latest release in Wood Buffalo.
Which agency provides the crime data for Wood Buffalo?
The incident data for Wood Buffalo come from the RCMP K‑Division open‑data point layer, which records property‑related offences such as theft, break‑and‑enter, and auto theft. This source does not capture person‑crime categories like assault or homicide in the public feed.
How current is the information displayed?
The latest incident date in the dataset is 26 August 2026, representing the most recent 24‑hour snapshot. For context, the interactive map’s rolling 60‑day window shows 247 incidents, but the headline figure reflects only the single day’s total as of the current update.
