Identifies First Nation Reserve boundaries defined by the Legal Surveys Division of Natural Resources Canada.

Data covers natural, rural and urban lands in Ecoregions 6E and 7E, current to 2000-2002. This land use inventory supports key provincial initiatives including: * source water protection * natural spaces * biodiversity conservation * state of resources reporting

Bathymetry line data was collected to assess fish habitat in Ontario. Spot depths (bathymetry points) were used to measure the depth contours, which function like isobars to show lines of constant depth. Their density and positional accuracies vary depending on the survey style and parameters. This data should never be used for navigation.

The land cover classes consist of vegetation types (such as forest, wetlands and agricultural crops or pasture) and categories of non-vegetated surface (such as water bodies, bedrock outcrops or settlements). These classes reflect the nature of the land surface rather than actual or potential land use. The 2000 Edition of the Ontario Land Cover Data Base is the Second Edition of this provincial land cover classification. The coverage is derived wholly from Landsat-7 Thematic Mapper (TM) satellite data frames recorded between 1999 and 2002, most from 2000 onward. The Provincial Land Cover (2000) Data Base is divided into 4 individual Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) grid zone tiles (15, 16, 17, and 18) and is distributed in Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) format. Documentation is provided with this database in the form of a user's guide and general use caveats.

The data layer identifies areas of disturbance to vegetation including burns, commercial forestry harvesting (cuts), weather events, infrastructure and pest/disease. Instructions for downloading this dataset: This product requires the use of geographic information system (GIS) software.

Note: This data has been replaced by the [Ontario Watershed Boundaries (OWB)](https://geohub.lio.gov.on.ca/datasets/mnrf::ontario-watershed-boundaries-owb). We are no longer updating this data. It is best suited for historical research and analysis. A watershed, also known as a catchment basin, includes all land that is drained by a watercourse and its tributaries. Watersheds are split into four categories: * primary * secondary * tertiary * quaternary These divisions are based on the federal framework originally known as the Water Resources Index Inventory Filing System. Ontario has 3 primary watersheds: * Great Lakes – St. Lawrence * Southwestern Hudson Bay * Nelson River Secondary watersheds are subdivisions of primary watersheds in Ontario. Most secondary divisions are either large river systems or groupings of small coastal streams. Tertiary watersheds are subdivisions of secondary watersheds in Ontario. Quaternary watersheds are subdivisions of tertiary watersheds. There are more than 1000 quaternary watersheds in Ontario.

Information summarizing metadata records that were part of Land Information Ontario's (LIO's) Metadata Management Tool. This table represents metadata records which formerly existed on LIO’s Metadata Management Tool. Records representing data licensed for use under the Open Government Licence - Ontario have migrated to the Ontario GeoHub. The remaining records could not migrate for one of the following reasons: * The data is not spatial. * The metadata record is incomplete. * The metadata contact information is invalid. * The metadata references data that has not been made available to LIO. * LIO cannot confirm that the data has been reviewed to be released under the Open Government Licence - Ontario.

Get data on Lake Ontario tagged Atlantic salmon recaptures. This dataset represents tagged adult Atlantic salmon that were released and then recaptured by anglers. These fish were used as brood stock (breeding) in the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s fish culture program. All fish were tagged with a streamer tag near the dorsal fin. Each tag has a unique number and a phone number so anglers can call and let the ministry know about their catch. The data includes: * tagging date * recapture date * tag number/colour * location released * location recaptured * days since released * distance travelled

This data contains an Index identifying Ontario Base Map map tiles. Eastern and Southern Ontario is covered at a scale of 1:10,000. Northern Ontario is covered at a scale of 1:20,000. We are no longer updating this data. It is best suited for historical research and analysis. This product requires the use of geographic information system (GIS) software.

The Ontario Classified Point Cloud (Imagery-Derived) is a classified elevation point cloud based on aerial photography. The point cloud is structured in non-overlapping 1 km by 1 km tiles in a compressed format. The following classification codes are applied to the data: * unclassified * ground * low noise This data is for geospatial tech specialists, and is used by government, municipalities, conservation authorities and the private sector for land use planning and environmental analysis. __Related data:__ Raster derivatives have been created from the point clouds for some imagery projects. These products may meet your needs and are available for direct download. For a representation of bare earth, see the [Ontario Digital Elevation Model (Imagery-Derived)]( https://geohub.lio.gov.on.ca/maps/mnrf::ontario-digital-elevation-model-imagery-derived/about).
