Slope Classes

The slope classes express the inclination of land where most of the forest stand is located. The slope classes are generated from a numerical model grouping in six classes the terrain slopes: + 0 -3% zero + Low of 4-8% + Soft of 9-15% + Moderate of 16-30% + Strong 31-40% + Steep 41% or more This mapping covers almost all of Quebec's territory south of the 52nd parallel. It is distributed by map sheet at a scale of 1/250,000. The slope classes have a minimum area of 0.5 ha. __Note:__ The numerical terrain model is prepared from the level and elevation point curves derived from the topographic map at the scale of 1/20,000 and 1/50,000 from the Quebec Topographic Database (BDTQ). __Old Name:__ Numerical Slope Classes
