In 2019, the Earth Observation Team of the Science and Technology Branch (STB) at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) repeated the process of generating annual crop inventory digital maps using satellite imagery to for all of Canada, in support of a national crop inventory. A Decision Tree (DT) based methodology was applied using optical (Landsat-8, Sentinel-2) and radar (RADARSAT-2) based satellite images, and having a final spatial resolution of 30m. In conjunction with satellite acquisitions, ground-truth information was provided by: provincial crop insurance companies in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, & Quebec; point observations from the PEI Department of Environment, Water and Climate Change and data collection supported by our regional AAFC Research and Development Centres in St. John’s, Kentville, Charlottetown, Fredericton, and Guelph.

Sea level rise increases coastal flooding in many areas of Canada. The Canadian Extreme Water Level Adaptation tool has been developed to accommodate sea level rise. The infrastructure needs to be built higher in order to reduce the risk of flooding. The vertical allowance is the recommended height that the infrastructure to be raised in future years relative to year 2010. The vertical allowance depends on (1) statistics of historical storm surge and tides, and (2) the best estimate and associated uncertainty of future sea level rise. The vertical allowance preserves the frequency of flooding events at some future time under uncertain sea level rise. Vertical allowances are provided for scenarios based on the fifth assessment report (AR5) of IPCC for the period of 2020-2100 and the sixth assessment report (AR6) of IPCC for the period of 2020-2150.

The National Ecological Framework for Canada's "Surface Material by Ecoprovince” dataset provides surface material information within the ecoprovince framework polygon. It provides surface material codes and their English and French language descriptions as well as information about the percentage of the polygon that the component occupies. Surface material includes the abiotic material at the earth's surface. The materials can be: ICE and SNOW - Glacial ice and permanent snow ORGANIC SOIL - Contains more than 30% organic matter as measured by weight ROCK - Rock undifferentiated MINERAL SOIL - Predominantly mineral particles: contains less than 30% organic matter as measured by weight URBAN - Urban areas. Note that only a few major urban area polygons are included on SLC source maps, therefore, do not use for tabulating total urban coverage

The National Ecological Framework for Canada's "Land and Water Area by Province/Territory and Ecodistrict” dataset provides land and water area values by province or territory for the Ecodistrict framework polygon, in hectares. It includes codes and their English and French descriptions for a polygon’s province or territory, total area, land-only area and large water body area.
