Canada Center for Mapping and Earth Observation (CCMEO)'s basemap is essential in supporting the Government of Canada’s priorities in areas such as open government, climate change mitigation, Indigenous reconciliation, emergency management, disaster preparedness and response, sustainable natural resource management, infrastructure planning, economy/labour and more. It reinforces CCMEO’s commitment to improving the accessibility, interoperability and integration of geospatial data across Canada. CCMEO currently offers multiple basemap types which include the following found in this series: - Transportation basemap (CBMT) in raster tile format - Transportation basemap (CBMT) in vector tile format EPSG: 3857 (WGS84 Pseudo-Mercator) - Transportation basemap (CBMT) in vector tile format EPSG: 3978 (NAD83 Canada Atlas Lambert) - Digital Elevation Model (DEM) - hillshade basemap (CBME) - Simple grey basemap - Provinces/Territories basemap - Grids (Lat/Long, NTS and UTM) basemap

The Canada Basemap – Transportation (CBMT) is a vector tile service that provides spatial reference context with an emphasis on transportation networks across Canada. It is designed especially for use as a background layer in a web mapping application or geographic information system (GIS). Access: Access is free of charge under the terms of the Open Government Licence - Canada. Data Sources: Data for the CBMT is sourced from multiple datasets. - Topographic data of Canada - CanVec Series. - “Automatically Extracted Buildings” GeoBase (a raw digital product in vector format automatically extracted from airborne Lidar data, high-resolution optical imagery or other sources). - Open Street Map (OSM) data available under the Open Database License (https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright). - Official names from the Canadian Geographical Names Database (CGNDB). Geographic Coverage: CBMT has complete coverage of the world, with full datasets in Canada and only partial data in other parts of the world including boundaries, Country Names, and major cities. Data Update Frequency: Updates are applied monthly to reflect the latest updates in the source datasets. Projection: Data is provided in the EPSG:3857 (WGS84 Pseudo-Mercator) projected coordinate system. Layer Access: - CBMT is accessible via the ArcGIS Online item link with the applied style or it can also be accessed directly with the default style using the following Vector Tile Server: https://tiles.arcgis.com/tiles/HsjBaDykC1mjhXz9/arcgis/rest/services/CBMT_CBCT_3857_V_OSM/VectorTileServer - In QGIS or other applications that require the style JSON, the following link can be used: https://arcgis.com/sharing/rest/content/items/800d755712e8415aab301b9d55bc2800/resources/styles/root.json Use Cases: This layer is suitable for use in any map as a basemap layer and can be modified to meet the needs of the project by editing the JSON style in the Vector Tile Style editor. Additional Versions: - A geometry-only version (CBMT3857GEOM) and a text-only version (CBMT3857TXT) are available. - French versions of the basemap are accessible via the Carte de base du Canada - Transport 3857 V (CBCT3857).

A sinkhole is a natural depression or hole in the Earth's surface which may have various causes. Most natural sinkholes are caused by the chemical dissolution of water-soluble carbonate rocks or gypsum. Sinkholes may vary in size from 1 to 600 m both in diameter and depth. Sinkholes may be formed gradually or by sudden collapse and are found worldwide in ‘karst areas.’ Karst areas are not unique to Nova Scotia; in fact, they occur in over a quarter of the earth’s surface. As a result, there are well-established methods for reducing karst risks. These include actions that can be taken both at the planning and construction stage of a project, as well as on-going actions that reduce the risk of future sinkhole formation. This dataset was developed to show areas of Nova Scotia where there is a relatively high-medium-low risk of encountering karst and naturally occurring sinkholes caused by soluble bedrock.
