Flood extent polygons from past years in selected Canadian regions that have been designated for observation, monitored by Natural Resources Canada using satellite imagery for emergency response. Coverage is not comprehensive nationwide. In response to large flood events, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), for the provision of emergency geomatics services, may be activated by Canada’s emergency management protocols. As new satellite imagery becomes available, NRCan will extract flood extent polygons and update the dataset in near real time (4 hours). This item contains the complete archive of all flood products generated since 2005, by NRCan's emergency geomatics services. For any data to the current year, please refer to the catalogue entry entitled: [Floods in Canada – Current]( https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/b1afd8d2-6e14-4ec4-9a09-652221a6cb71). The flood products generated are validated on a best effort basis. Various factors may affect the quality of the flood polygons. These factors include, but are not limited to, sensor type, image resolution, cloud cover or limitations of the flood polygon extraction method. In this layer, where possible, a symbology is applied to the flood polygons based on the underlying land use classification, or is simply unclassified and shows the raw flood extent. When using Web mapping services, to display a specific product, filter by date (UTC Date) and area of interest (AOI). Also, a link to download each product directly from the FTP site is available in the Resources section. This prepackaged and compressed product contains a Shape file, a PDF file and a KMZ file. For more information on past flooding events, please refer to the catalog entry entitled: [Historical Flood Events (HFE)](https://geo.ca/flood-mapping/flood-map-gallery/historical-flood-events/) Disclaimer: Emergency response authorities are the primary users of these satellite-derived open water flood extent map products. These products are generated to provide analysis and emergency response situational awareness and to facilitate decision-making during major flood events. The open water flood extent products are generated rapidly and limited time is available for editing and validation. The flood products reflect the open water flood conditions at the date/time of acquisition. While efforts are made to produce high quality products, near-real time products may contain errors due to the limited time available for vector editing and validation.

The Environmental Assessment (EA) projects layer includes all projects for which an environmental assessment under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012 is ongoing. The location of a project included in the dataset is approximate based on information provided by proponents. More than one location may be identified for a given project. This dataset does not include information related to the project footprint. Additional information on EA projects included in this dataset is available on the Project Home Page and in the project description documents on the Canadian Environmental Assessment Registry Internet site.

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P STYLE="margin:0 0 14 0;"><SPAN>The dataset time series presented by this web service corresponds to daily (subsampled to a monthly interval) snow cover percentage at 1km resolution grid over land areas of Canada from 2006-2010. The data are subsampled by 4km to reduce data volumes and considering the geolocation uncertainty of the input satellite imagery. The daily maps are generated by assimilation of daily cloud screened NOAA AVHRR satellite imagery and Canadian Meteorological Centre (CMC) snow depth analysis snow depth and density fields within an off-line version of the CMC daily snow depth model. The snow depth model is modified to include snowpack reflectance model and a surface radiative transfer scheme that relates vegetation and snowpack reflectance to top-of-canopy bi-directional reflectance. A logistic vegetation phenology model is used to parameterize temporal dynamics of canopy leaf area index. A per-pixel particle filter with a 30 day moving window is applied to assimilation observations corresponding to 1km resolution visible band directional reflectance and normalized difference vegetation index and 24km CMC daily snow depth and monthly snow density fields. The assimilation is forced using daily air temperature and precipitation fields. Validation of the datasets has been performed by comparison to MODIS snow cover maps and in-situ snow depth stations across Canada. Validation suggests similar accuracy to MODIS snow cover products over relatively flat terrain.</SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 14 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>The source data is accessible at </SPAN></SPAN><A href="https://neodf.nrcan.gc.ca/neodf_cat3/"><SPAN><SPAN>https://neodf.nrcan.gc.ca/neodf_cat3/</SPAN></SPAN></A></P><P><SPAN /></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

Flood extent polygons representing past floods throughout Canada as monitored by Natural Resources Canada using satellite imagery for emergency response. In response to large flood events, Natural Resources Canada, for the provision of emergency geomatics services (NRCan), may be activated by Canada’s emergency management protocols. This item contains past years archive of the flood products generated by NRCan emergency geomatics services. The flood products are generated and validated on a best effort basis. Various factors may affect the quality of the flood polygons. Those factors include but are not limited to: sensor type, image resolution, cloud coverage or limits to the flood polygon extraction method. In this layer, a symbology is applied to the flood polygons based on the underlying land use classification, when available, or is simply unclassified and shows the gross flood extent otherwise. Filter on date and Area of Interest (AOI) to view specific products. Time-enabled on Date UTC field.

This service shows the percentage of the population who reported an Aboriginal identity by census division. The data is from the Census Profile, Statistics Canada Catalogue no. 98-316-X2016001. Aboriginal identity refers to whether the person identified with the Aboriginal peoples of Canada. This includes those who are First Nations (North American Indian), Métis or Inuk (Inuit) and/or those who are Registered or Treaty Indians (that is, registered under the Indian Act of Canada) and/or those who have membership in a First Nation or Indian band. Aboriginal peoples of Canada are defined in the Constitution Act, 1982, section 35 (2) as including the Indian, Inuit and Métis peoples of Canada. Users should be aware that the estimates associated with this variable are more affected than most by the incomplete enumeration of certain Indian reserves and Indian settlements in the 2016 Census of Population.
