Precipitation (moisture availability) establishes the economic yield potential and product quality of field crops. Both dry and wet precipitation extremes have the ability to inhibit proper crop growth. The maximum daily precipitation index covers the risk of excessive precipitation in the short term, while the other indices pertain to longer term moisture availability. Agriculture is an important primary production sector in Canada. Agricultural production, profitability, sustainability and food security depend on many agrometeorological factors. Extreme weather events in Canada, such as drought, floods, heat waves, frosts and high intensity storms, have the ability to significantly impact field crop production. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) and Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) have together developed a suite of extreme agrometeorological indices based on four main categories of weather factors: temperature, precipitation, heat, and wind. The extreme weather indices are intended as short-term prediction tools and generated using ECCC’s medium range forecasts to create a weekly index product on a daily basis.

Frost free days are the number of days in the forecast period with a minimum temperature above the frost temperature; the temperature at which frost damage occurs. This temperature is 0°C for warm season crops (ffd_warm). Week 1 and week 2 forecasted index is available daily from April 1 to October 31. Week 3 and week 4 forecasted index is available weekly (Thursday) from April 1 to October 31. Warm season crops require a relatively warm temperature condition. Typical examples include bean, soybean, corn and sweet potato. They normally grow during the summer season and early fall, then ripen in late fall in southern Canada only. Other agricultural regions in Canada do not always experience sufficiently long growing seasons for these plants to achieve maturity. The optimum temperature for such crops is 30°C.

This polygonal dataset represents authorized applications for a Mines Act permit known as a Permitted Mine Area (PMA). This dataset can be used in combination with the NoW point dataset which represents both applications for a Mines Act permit and issued authorizations for mining activities proposed in the application. **The regional mine PMA dataset is not complete for all mine sites in BC. Review the data quality section for more information** Point representation of NoW: https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/fab53209-63be-4c61-8de4-3e3fceec4227 Applications for regional Mines Act permits are known as Notice of Work (NoW) applications. Regional mine permits are issued for mineral and coal exploration activities, sand and gravel production, quarry production, and placer mining. Major mine permits are issued for producing mineral and coal mines. Permits are issued by the chief permitting officer under section 10 of the Mines Act and administered by the ministry. **Regional mines include:** * Exploration — mineral, coal, rock quarry, industrial mineral or dimension stone * Sand and gravel — aggregate, rock or natural substances used for construction purposes * Placer   Most exploration and development activities require a permit under the Mines Act. A decision marks the end of the permitting process for a NoW application. The decision can either be to reject the application or to authorize the mining activities proposed in the NoW. * For new NoW authorizations, a Mines Act permit is issued * For an existing open Mines Act permit, the newly authorized mining activities are amended to the existing permit and the permit is re-issued   Notice of Work categories include: Notice of Work application type, Notice of Work application status. **Notice of Work application type** Field: NOW_APPLICATION_TYPE_DESC (NW_APPTYPD) * Coal * Mineral * Placer Operations * Quarry – Construction Aggregate * Quarry – Industrial Mineral * Sand and Gravel   **Notice of Work application status** Field: NOW_APPLICATION_STATUS_DESC (NW_APPSTAD) * Approved – mining activities in the NoW application have been authorized   **For the public view, please be aware that the ministry:** * Removed the attribute value of closed permits in the PERMIT_STATUS_CODE_DESC (PMT_STD) field. These records will show as permit status is NULL (empty). * Only shows mine commodities of gold or jade/nephrite in the MINE_COMMODITY_DESC (MN_COMD) field. All other commodity values remain NULL (empty)

Data set listing the interventions carried out by the Montreal Fire Safety Service (SIM), including the location of interventions and the units deployed since 2005. This data is taken from the Workstation Assisted Dispatch System (RAO), a central subsystem of the intervention management system that allows real-time management, vehicle dispatch and operational monitoring of interventions. This data is collected to produce reports required by the Ministry of Public Security and required for the SIM. It also makes it possible to compile statistics in order to disseminate information to citizens, the media and insurers.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

The inclusions and exclusions come from applications for authorization submitted under the Act respecting the protection of land and agricultural activities (LPTAA L.R.Q., c. P-41.1) relating to the inclusion of lots in the agricultural zone or to the exclusion of lots in the agricultural zone. o The file of inclusions and exclusions represents polygons resulting from decisions of the Commission that modify the boundaries of the agricultural zone. An inclusion adds an area to the agricultural area while an exclusion removes it. The boundaries of the agricultural zone are then the result of the addition of these decisions. o Decisions are spread over time and there may be a partial or total superposition of an area resulting from inclusion and exclusion. In these cases, consider the result from the highest file number, which is the final result. · Source of inclusions and exclusions o The reference documents that served as the basis for the digitization of decisions are: the basis for topographic data of Quebec (BDTQ) at a scale of 1:20,000, the cadastral compilation at the scale 1:20,000, the Quebec Cadastre, orthophotos and various plans. · Warnings and limitations o All the inclusions and exclusions folders are also contained in the file of decisions. However, a decision leading to an inclusion or exclusion will not take effect until when it was registered with the Registrar's Office. It is only at this time that the decision will appear in the inclusions and exclusions file. Several months may elapsing between a decision and its registration. If the conditions are not met within the deadline If the decision is given, it will lapse. o With the progress of cadastral renovation, more and more territories in agricultural areas are dependent on the new cadastre. The renovated cadastre has the advantage of being more precise and better structured as the cadastral compilation. On the other hand, you should know that several decisions leading to an inclusion or exclusion has been rendered and mapped on the cadastral compilation. By Therefore, in order to limit the risks of misinterpretation, refer to the text of the decision as well as the attached plan if necessary to validate the positioning if necessary. Purpose: To have an overview of CPTAQ decisions and to facilitate the processing of authorization applications.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
