Rideau Canal Skateway - Ice condition by section Each winter, the NCC transforms the historic Rideau Canal into the world’s largest skating rink. The Rideau Canal Skateway winds its way through the heart of the National Capital over a total length of 7.8 km. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Rideau Canal in winter becomes a treasure that is the pride of the National Capital and a signature destination. The skating season typically runs from January to early March, but it is weather-dependent. When open, the Skateway is free and accessible 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. When the Skateway is open, ice conditions are monitored by section twice daily, at approximately 8 am and 4 pm.

The Forest Analysis and Inventory Branch (FAIB) is responsible for coordinating and managing data collection and analyses from a range of different ground sampling programs that collect data on ground plots. This layer shows ground plots from the PSP and VRI programs. **Vegetation Resource Inventory (VRI):** ground samples primarily used to audit and verify key inventory attributes estimated during photo interpretation. These samples are not protected because they will not be revisited. **Permanent Sample Plots (PSP):** subjectively located fixed-area permanent plots, valued for their long-term re-measurement data to support development of growth-and-yield models in unmanaged stands across a range of stand and ecosystem types. Actual GPS coordinates are provided as protection is necessary. - Active PSPs = plot and buffer are protected from harvesting - Inactive PSPs = not protected from harvesting

A tribal council is a grouping of First Nations with common interests who voluntarily joined together to provide services to member First Nations. The tribal council geographic location dataset contains the geographic location of all tribal councils in Canada as points as well as basic attributes data. Each tribal council point represents its address as it is registered in Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC) Indian Government Support System (IGSS). A connection with the IGSS is in place to ensure that any update to the system is reflected in the attributes data associated with the geography of each tribal council. This dataset is Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) and Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada (CIRNAC) official source for Tribal Councils geographic location on maps.

This data set includes various offers combining events that may be of interest to tourist customers from outside the immediate region. Several types of events are listed, including festivals, multimedia and immersive experiences, major exhibitions, shows and fairs. Please note that this dataset is an overview of the tourist offer in Quebec and is not intended to identify the entire offer. This data comes from the Quebec Tourism Information System (SIT Quebec). In addition, if your interest lies in obtaining official indicators and statistics on the Quebec tourism industry, we invite you to explore the Tourism Studies and Statistics section of the Québec.ca site at the following link: https://www.quebec.ca/tourisme-et-loisirs/services-industrie-touristique/etudes-statistiques.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

The inclusions and exclusions come from applications for authorization submitted under the Act respecting the protection of land and agricultural activities (LPTAA L.R.Q., c. P-41.1) relating to the inclusion of lots in the agricultural zone or to the exclusion of lots in the agricultural zone. o The file of inclusions and exclusions represents polygons resulting from decisions of the Commission that modify the boundaries of the agricultural zone. An inclusion adds an area to the agricultural area while an exclusion removes it. The boundaries of the agricultural zone are then the result of the addition of these decisions. o Decisions are spread over time and there may be a partial or total superposition of an area resulting from inclusion and exclusion. In these cases, consider the result from the highest file number, which is the final result. · Source of inclusions and exclusions o The reference documents that served as the basis for the digitization of decisions are: the basis for topographic data of Quebec (BDTQ) at a scale of 1:20,000, the cadastral compilation at the scale 1:20,000, the Quebec Cadastre, orthophotos and various plans. · Warnings and limitations o All the inclusions and exclusions folders are also contained in the file of decisions. However, a decision leading to an inclusion or exclusion will not take effect until when it was registered with the Registrar's Office. It is only at this time that the decision will appear in the inclusions and exclusions file. Several months may elapsing between a decision and its registration. If the conditions are not met within the deadline If the decision is given, it will lapse. o With the progress of cadastral renovation, more and more territories in agricultural areas are dependent on the new cadastre. The renovated cadastre has the advantage of being more precise and better structured as the cadastral compilation. On the other hand, you should know that several decisions leading to an inclusion or exclusion has been rendered and mapped on the cadastral compilation. By Therefore, in order to limit the risks of misinterpretation, refer to the text of the decision as well as the attached plan if necessary to validate the positioning if necessary. Goal: To have an overview of CPTAQ decisions and to facilitate the processing of authorization applications.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

This dataset corresponds to daily 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. Validation over mountainous regions is ongoing.

The Quebec road network, which is managed by the Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility (MTMD), is represented on the interactive map according to the functional class of roads: Highway, National, Regional, Collector, Local 1-2-3, Local 1-2-3, Access resources, Access to resources and isolated locations. Some routes in the dataset are also under federal management or in public-private partnerships (PPP). The road network is inventoried according to the MTMD linear reference system. The linear reference is expressed under the acronym RTSS (Road, Section, Section, Sub-road). The inventoried roads are composed of a 14-character alphanumeric code and an associated measure called chaining (distance measured in meters). An inventoried route will therefore have a starting link (always 0) and an end link representing its length. Thus, the chaining value of a point can be extrapolated precisely to this point. The linear reference method is applied both in the field by different reference points and for the management of digital data of related road assets.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
