The Ministry of Transportation's Remote Northern Transportation Office in Thunder Bay operates 29 airports. These are located in Ontario's far north, extending from the Manitoba border on the west to Hudson's Bay on the north and to the Quebec border on the east. Except for Pickle Lake and Armstrong, these airports serve aboriginal communities, which have no all-weather road access to the rest of Ontario.

An Agreement Forest Area is a polygon feature that identifies an area of forested private land governed by a Forest Management Agreement. Private companies have agreed, through negotiated agreements with the ministry, to carry out planning and all operational timber management, except protection operations (for example, insect and disease pest control). We are no longer updating this data. It is best suited for historical research and analysis.

Shows areas where forest insect pests have damaged or killed trees by defoliation, foliage mining and wood boring. Tree mortality rarely occurs as the result of one year's infestation, but from the result of several consecutive years of infestation and other contributing factors affecting weakened trees (e.g., fungal invasion). The Government of Ontario tracks forest damage events to help proactively manage the detrimental effects to our forests.   We monitor the threat and spread of invasive forest pest insect species in Ontario. The data is also important to the Forest Management Planning process in calculating timber volume loss within affected areas This product requires the use of GIS software. *[GIS]: geographic information system
