    River ice roughness products from past years in selected Canadian regions that have been designated for observation, monitored by Natural Resources Canada using satellite imagery for emergency response. Coverage is not comprehensive nationwide. In order to mitigate ice jam induced floods risks, Natural Resources Canada emergency geomatics service (EGS) may be activated by Canada’s emergency management authorities. As new satellite imagery becomes available, NRCan will produce river ice roughness maps and update the dataset in near real time (4 hours). This item contains the complete record of the river ice roughness products generated in past years. For any data to the current year, please refer to the [River Ice in Canada - Seasonal](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/8ca6f047-ddef-43d7-81c2-47654f4c69bd) entry. The river ice product is generated and validated on a best effort basis. Various factors may affect the quality of the river ice roughness maps. Those factors include but are not limited to: sensor type, image resolution or the limitations of the methodology used. To view a specific product in Web Services, filter the data by date (UTC Date) and area of interest (AOI). A link to download specific EGS products is available in the Resources section. Disclaimer: Emergency response authorities are the primary users of these satellite-derived river ice roughness map products. These products are generated to provide analysis and emergency response situational awareness and to facilitate decision-making during major flood events. The river ice roughness products are generated rapidly and limited time is available for editing and validation. The river ice roughness products reflect the river ice surface roughness conditions at the date/time of acquisition. While efforts are made to produce high quality products, near-real time products may contain errors due to the limited time available for validation and the limited availability of ground truthing data.

    This dataset provides access to the digitized fascicles from the Pignon sur rue collection: *The neighborhoods of Montréal*, and locates the territories covered by each of them. It includes links to the notices and to the 1991 reissues of the issues, digitized by the Archives de Montréal, with the kind permission of the publisher Guérin literature. The Archives notice on the collection is available on their [website] (https://archivesdemontreal.ica-atom.org/pignon-sur-rue-les-quartiers-de-montreal-1991). These references on Montreal heritage are available to everyone under license [CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 Attribution - Non-commercial use - Sharing under the same conditions 4.0 International] (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/deed.fr). Some usage restrictions apply to scanned files (non-commercial use only). The data in these documents correspond to the state of knowledge at the time of their publication and have not been updated since then. The territory covered corresponds to that of the City of Montreal before the municipal mergers of 2002. The collection is signed by Michèle Benoît and Roger Gratton and was created under an agreement between the City of Montreal and the Quebec Ministry of Cultural Affairs on the enhancement of Old Montreal and Montreal's heritage. Originally published in the 1980s, it was republished in 1991 in the form of fascicles and a bound book. Pignon sur rue summarizes and makes accessible the results of the Macro-Inventory of Montreal neighborhoods, produced between 1978 and 1985. The analysis of this Macro-inventory is fully digitized and accessible online via the [BAnQ collections] (https://numerique.banq.qc.ca/patrimoine/details/52327/4352544) and partially via the [Archives de Montréal] site (https://archivesdemontreal.ica-atom.org/macro-inventaire-1978-1985), which also offers numerous photographs produced as part of this work. This dataset is the result of a collaboration between the Inventory Section of the Heritage Division of the City of Montreal, the City of Montreal Archives, and the Department of Strategic Planning, Performance and Innovation, with the authorization of Guérin Litterature, publisher of the 1991 reissue of the issues.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

    Flood extent polygons from past years in selected Canadian regions that have been designated for observation, monitored by Natural Resources Canada using satellite imagery for emergency response. Coverage is not comprehensive nationwide. In response to large flood events, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), for the provision of emergency geomatics services, may be activated by Canada’s emergency management protocols. As new satellite imagery becomes available, NRCan will extract flood extent polygons and update the dataset in near real time (4 hours). This item contains the complete archive of all flood products generated since 2005, by NRCan's emergency geomatics services. For any data to the current year, please refer to the catalogue entry entitled: [Floods in Canada – Current]( https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/b1afd8d2-6e14-4ec4-9a09-652221a6cb71). The flood products generated are validated on a best effort basis. Various factors may affect the quality of the flood polygons. These factors include, but are not limited to, sensor type, image resolution, cloud cover or limitations of the flood polygon extraction method. In this layer, where possible, a symbology is applied to the flood polygons based on the underlying land use classification, or is simply unclassified and shows the raw flood extent. When using Web mapping services, to display a specific product, filter by date (UTC Date) and area of interest (AOI). Also, a link to download each product directly from the FTP site is available in the Resources section. This prepackaged and compressed product contains a Shape file, a PDF file and a KMZ file. For more information on past flooding events, please refer to the catalog entry entitled: [Historical Flood Events (HFE)](https://geo.ca/flood-mapping/flood-map-gallery/historical-flood-events/) Disclaimer: Emergency response authorities are the primary users of these satellite-derived open water flood extent map products. These products are generated to provide analysis and emergency response situational awareness and to facilitate decision-making during major flood events. The open water flood extent products are generated rapidly and limited time is available for editing and validation. The flood products reflect the open water flood conditions at the date/time of acquisition. While efforts are made to produce high quality products, near-real time products may contain errors due to the limited time available for vector editing and validation. Please note that current algorithms do not map flooded areas under the forest canopy and are not optimized for urban flood mapping.
