The new [download card] (https://imagerie-telechargement.portailcartographique.gouv.qc.ca/) allows you to obtain several other orthophotographs and orthomosaics for free.

To access airborne forest imagery, you can also consult the following sheets:

• [Mosaic of aerial orthophotographs from the ecoforest inventory of southern Quebec] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/mosaique)

In addition, the sheet ** “Aerial imagery — orthophotographic mosaics” ** will be removed shortly.

****

Orthophotographic mosaics present an aerial view of Quebec territory at different times. Each image has been analytically straightened to eliminate inaccuracies caused by the camera being tilted at the time of shooting or by the image being moved due to terrain.

These collections are the result of governmental and regional initiatives, namely:

* The Southern Quebec Ecoforest Inventory (IEQM)

* Partnerships between ministries, agencies and municipal communities

They are free to download, as they were acquired under an open data license (** [Creative Commons 4.0] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/licence/) **). Three formats are available depending on the territory: JPEG 2000, ECW and GeoTIFF.

For product ownership information (resolution, image type, etc.), please refer to the information for each mosaic available in the ** [download card] (https://imagerie-telechargement.portailcartographique.gouv.qc.ca/) **.

For more information on priced aerial imagery, please consult the sheet ** [aerial imagery] (https://mern.gouv.qc.ca/repertoire-geographique/imagerie-aerienne/) ** in the “Maps and Geographic Information” section of the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources website.
