Tile layer of Canada's managed forested or treed areas and water used in the Story Map of Forest Management in Canada, 2017. This tiled layer data represents Canada's forested areas (& water) used in the Story Map of Forest Management in Canada, 2017. Canada's forest management classification map classifies all land and inland water areas. It does not differentiate forest areas from non-forest areas. Treed areas can be identified using a separate map layer that was derived using satellite data. Treed areas were used as a proxy for forested areas having a canopy closure of 25% or greater and a tree height of 5 m or greater.

Temporal analysis of changes in Winnipeg, Manitoba, based on GeoAI features automatically extracted from satellite images acquired in 2013 and 2023. Simple geospatial analysis enables the detection of features present in 2023 that were not already there in 2013. The addition of new buildings is a good indicator of urban development and/or sprawl. Complementarily, an analysis of changes in the forest coverage from the GeoAI datasets is done. This analysis reflects the gains and losses between both dates. ‌ GeoAI enables temporal coverage of various areas in Canada, thus providing a useful tool for change detection and trend analysis at high resolution. While the series is still fairly new, and such examples are limited for the time being, NRCan strives to gradually increase its GeoAI data offering for both spatial and temporal coverage.

Tile layer of private, managed forest code 50 used in the Story Map of Forest Management in Canada, 2017. Tile layer of private, managed forest code 50 used in the Story Map of Forest Management in Canada, 2017. Private lands were identified using provincial and territorial land ownership datasets. Detailed ownership datasets were not available in all jurisdictions, so proxies were used where necessary. In Saskatchewan, lands south of the province's Commercial Forest Zone were classified as Private. This includes some Crown lands, but these are generally small and not included in forest management plans or leased for commercial forestry purposes.

Tile layer of restricted, managed forest code 33 used in the Forest Management in Canada, 2020 story map. Tile layer of Restricted (managed forest code 33) areas identified using provincial and territorial datasets. The Restricted tile layer is used in the Restricted Map 2020 (Managed Forest Code 33) that forms part of the Story Map of Forest Management in Canada, 2020 (Aménagement des forêts au Canada, 2020).

The ASTER instrument that was launched onboard NASA’s Terra spacecraft in December 1999 has an along-track stereoscopic capability using two telescopes in its near infrared spectral band to acquire data from nadir and backward views. Over 1.2 million scenes (level-1A products) acquired between March 2000 and August 2008 were used to generate the ASTER Global DEM (ASTGTM) collection.  For more information on the ASTER Global DEM, please see the metadata link.
