This point-in-time dataset shows fire hydrants on the island of Montreal. These terminals are elevated devices located along the streets, equipped with a water intake from the water lines, to which the fire-fighting hoses are connected to ensure fire protection. The information associated with the geographic data corresponds to the date of installation, status, owner, and jurisdiction. __WARNing__: These data are published annually, so they do not include updates made during the year. For this reason, they should not under any circumstances be used for engineering purposes without validation with the City.
