A trapline area is a polygon feature that identifies a ministry-regulated boundary used to administer traplines and fur management programs.

The dataset represents prominent linear (man-made or natural) features including: * cliffs * dykes * fences * walls * hedgerows * feature outlines * racetrack centre lines * racetrack edges We are no longer updating this data. It is best suited for historical research and analysis.

The Forest Resources Inventory (FRI) provides information about tree species, including: * composition * height * age * density Ontario’s forest resource inventories allow us to support resource management and land use decisions, and help sustain healthy, natural environments. Forest resource inventories for each forest management unit are legally required under the [Crown Forest Sustainability Act (1994)](https://www.ontario.ca/laws/statute/94c25). Every 10 years, the ministry creates a new forest management plan where inventory data is updated and must be compliant with the requirements detailed in the Act. Ontario’s FRI is also used to meet provincial, federal, and international reporting requirements. These draft FRI Packaged Product data sets are being provided for the purpose of consultation and product development. The number of attributes and the algorithms used to generate the attribute as well as the data formats will change over time and should not be considered the final version. A final version of the structure and content of the FRI will be made available after the required consultations are complete. Data sets will be made available for each Forest Management Unit as they are produced. For more information on the FRI please see: [https://www.ontario.ca/page/forest-resources-inventory](https://www.ontario.ca/page/forest-resources-inventory)

This dataset shows 1:250,000 scale faults/lineaments of the Precambrian Shield area of Saskatchewan. This dataset shows the 1:250,000 scale bedrock geology faults/lineaments of the Precambrian Shield area of Saskatchewan. The faults/lineaments layer has been merged from the 1:250,000 scale Compilation Bedrock Geology map series.  **Please Note – All published Saskatchewan Geological Survey datasets, including those available through the Saskatchewan Mining and Petroleum GeoAtlas, are sourced from the Enterprise GIS Data Warehouse. They are therefore identical and share the same refresh schedule.

Southern Ontario Land Resource Information System (SOLRIS) is based on Ministry of Natural Resources' Ecological Land Classification (ELC) for southern Ontario (Lee et al, 1998). It is a land use inventory that supports a number of key Provincial initiatives including Source Water Protection, Natural Spaces, Biodiversity Conservation and State of Resources Reporting. The data covers the date ranges from 1999-2002 and 2009-2011.

Fish Culture Operation MNR identifies the locations of the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) fish culture stations (or hatcheries) and sub- stations. The data set outlines their property boundaries. This product requires the use of GIS software.

The Big Picture 2002 is a legacy geographic information system (GIS) based landscape analysis. It is a partnership between the Nature Conservancy of Canada and the Ministry of Natural Resources’ Natural Heritage Information Centre. Many digital layers covering the Mixedwood Plains ecozone plus a portion of the Ontario Shield ecozone were compiled for this analysis. These layers include: * evaluated wetlands * forest cover * old growth forest * rare species and communities * waterbodies and watercourses * parks and protected areas * Areas of Natural and Scientific Interest (ANSIs) The data layers are overlaid in a GIS system and points are assigned to the features in each layer according to their conservation value. Core natural areas were identified by a combination of minimum size and a minimum point score per pixel. Potential linkages between these cores were computed by assigning scores to the landscape surrounding the cores based on the probable resistance to wildlife movement. We do not currently use this methodology for similar analyses.

[ARCHIVED] Amendments to the Mortgage Act came into effect Nov 1, 2021 which created new mortgage license types and a new public register of licensed mortgage brokerages, mortgage lenders and mortgage administrators. Please refer to the new public register for current data: https://beta.novascotia.ca/licensed-mortgage-brokerages-mortgage-lenders-and-mortgage-administrators. A mortgage lender is a business or person who extends credit secured by real property; or by advertisement, notice or sign indicates that the person is a mortgage lender.

A feature is a representation of a real world object, such as a lake, stream, dam or rapid. There are three hydrographic feature classes:  points, lines and polys.   All may impede or be hazardous to waterflow and/or navigation on a watercourse or waterbody. This data shows natural and manmade poly features.  Examples include: * break walls * dams * rapids * shipwrecks [Technical Bulletin: Data migrated to new Ontario Hydro Network (OHN) - Hydrographic Feature Data Classes (PDF)](http://geo2.scholarsportal.info/proxy.html?http:__maps.scholarsportal.info/files/PDFS/public/OGDE/OHN/TB-OHN-PostMigration_101112.pdf)

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