The National Ecological Framework for Canada provides a consistent, national spatial framework that allows various ecosystems to be described, monitored and reported on. It provides standard ecological units that allow different jurisdictions and disciplines to use common communication and reporting, and a common ground to report on the state of the environment and the sustainability of ecosystems in Canada. The framework was developed between 1991 and 1999 by the Ecosystems Science Directorate, Environment Canada and the Center for Land and Biological Resources Research, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. Over 100 federal and provincial agencies, non-governmental organizations and private sector companies contributed to its development.

These structure, isopach and zero edge files are part of a series of stratigraphic framework maps for the Saskatchewan Phanerozoic Fluids and Petroleum Systems (SPFPS) project. The series of stratigraphic framework maps for the Saskatchewan Phanerozoic Fluids and Petroleum Systems (SPFPS) project have been produced using 2 km equi-spaced modified grids generated from Golden Software’s Surfer 9 kriging algorithm. The dataset used to produce each of the maps in this series was created using data from several projects completed by the Ministry (Christopher, 2003; Saskatchewan Industry and Resources et al., 2004; Kreis et al., 2004; Marsh and Heinemann, 2006; Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources et al., 2007; Heinemann and Marsh, 2009); these data were validated and edited as required to facilitate correlations between the various regional projects. In addition, to minimize edge effects during contouring, the senior author also generated stratigraphic data from wells in adjacent jurisdictions.

Concentration levels from soil sampled in urban and rural parklands in the province. Data includes: * station name and location (rounded to 1 km precision) * sample date * results for 35 inorganics (1991) * results for 8 volatile organic compounds (2009)

[ARCHIVED] The requirement for non-commercial burn permits has been discontinued.

Prior to January 1, 2008, fishing divisions were administrative units to manage, monitor, assess and regulate recreational fisheries. Each zone was based on angler usage and ecological/geographic patterns. Refer to [Fisheries Management Zone for boundaries after 2008](/dataset/fisheries-management-zone).

Aurora Geosciences Ltd was contracted to perform a review of publicly available digital magnetic geophysical data submitted with assessment reports to develop standardized products and compilations. Data submitted prior to March 2015 were considered. Individual assessment report data were levelled and integrated with 1:250 000 compilations completed in 2017. Two gridded PDFs have been produced (residual total magnetic field and reduced to pole). Original 250k geophysical data can be found in YGS Open File 2017-50.

Data submitted prior to March 2015 were considered. Individual assessment report data were levelled and integrated with 1:250 000 compilations. Four gridded PDFs have been produced (residual total magnetic field, reduced to pole, vertical derivative and tilt derivative). Original 250k geophysical data can be found in YGS Open File 2017-15.

Long-term tenure map (managed forest code 11) used in the  Story Map of Forest Management in Canada, 2017. Long-Term Tenure areas are lands having long-term volume- or area-based tenure or effectively having the equivalent, such as consistently recurrent commercial forest tenure with associated forest management activity.
