This data set presents the places of interest in the City of Montreal according to the classification carried out as part of the Montreal on Foot (MàP) initiative in 2020. The Montréal à Pied project aims to improve orientation and pedestrian paths throughout Montreal. Although the data concern the territory of the boroughs, places of interest may be located on the territory of linked cities for a better coherence of geographic information.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

Le Canada est divisé en 308 circonscriptions. Un représentant du Parlement ou député est élu pour chacune des circonscriptions. Après la diffusion des chiffres de population de chaque recensement décennal, le directeur général des élections détermine le nombre de sièges à la Chambre des communes et publie cette information dans la Gazette du Canada. Les commissions de délimitation des circonscriptions déterminent ensuite les modifications à apporter aux limites des circonscriptions. Les commissions de délimitation des circonscriptions fédérales sont des organismes indépendants qui prennent toutes les décisions concernant les limites proposées et définitives des circonscriptions fédérales. Élections Canada offre des services de soutien à la commission de délimitation des circonscriptions dans chaque province. À la lumière des rapports de ces commissions, le directeur général des élections prépare une ordonnance de représentation faisant état des limites, du nom et de la population de chaque CF. L'ordonnance de représentation prend effet à la première dissolution du Parlement qui se produit au moins un an après sa proclamation. L'Ordonnance de représentation de 2003 (proclamée le 25 août 2003) était fondée sur les chiffres de population du recensement de 2001; le nombre de CF, établi à 301 selon l'Ordonnance de représentation de 1996, est passé à 308. L'Ontario s'est accru de trois sièges, alors que l'Alberta et la Colombie-Britannique en ont gagné deux chacun. Le 19 juin 2014, la Loi de 2014 sur les changements de noms de circonscriptions (Projet de loi C-37) a reçu la sanction royale modifiant le nom de la CF de Western Arctic à Territoires du Nord-Ouest. Le nom des CF peut être modifié n'importe quand par une loi fédérale.

Élections Canada offre des services de soutien à la commission de délimitation des circonscriptions dans chaque province. À la lumière des rapports de ces commissions, le directeur général des élections prépare un décret de représentation électorale faisant état des limites, du nom et de la population de chaque CF. Le décret de représentation électorale prend effet à la première dissolution du Parlement qui se produit au moins sept mois après sa proclamation. Le décret de représentation électorale de 2013 (proclamée le 5 octobre 2013) était fondée sur les chiffres de population du recensement de 2011; le nombre de CF, établi à 308 selon le décret de représentation électorale de 2003, est passé à 338. L’Ontario s’est accru de quinze sièges, l’Alberta et la Colombie-Britannique en ont gagné six chacun, alors que le Québec en a ajouté trois. Le 19 juin 2014, la Loi de 2014 sur les changements de noms de circonscriptions (Projet de loi C-37) a reçu la sanction royale modifiant les noms de 31 CF. Le nom des CF peut être modifié n’importe quand par une loi fédérale.

__The link: *Access the data directory* is available in the section*Dataset Description Sheets; Additional Information*__. The Forest Inventory Directorate of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests (MRNF) began, in 2021, the production of data that indicates the strength of forest vegetation based on the NBR vegetation index * (Normalized Burn Ratio) *. These data are produced from images from Sentinel-2A/B satellites. The purpose of the layer thus produced is to present a regional portrait, at a given date, of the strength of forest vegetation, at the pixel scale. Before integrating these data into forest planning, it is recommended to plan validation work by photo-interpretation or by means of field visits. It should also be noted that these data are complementary to the other existing data layers (ecoforestry data, fires, harvesting and reforestation, defoliation records from aerial overflights, etc.).**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

As part of measure 2.6 of the 2013-2020 Climate Change Action Plan, the MELCC financed two projects specific to the St. Lawrence river section and aimed at supporting municipalities facing the risks of erosion and flooding. The team of the **Laboratoire de Géomorphology Terre-Mer du Département de Géomorphology de l'Université Laval** has set up an essential geospatial information base for assessing the risks associated with the erosion of the banks of the banks of the St. Lawrence river section. The user will be able to find there (i) the mapping of the classification of the shore (types of banks and their artificialization), (ii) the degradation conditions of artificial structures and (iii) the state of erosion of natural or artificial segments. The sectors most vulnerable to erosion have also been mapped and documented with image quality sheets. These sheets present the characteristics of the shoreline and the main natural (currents, ice, etc.) and human geomorphological processes (currents, ice, etc.) associated with bank erosion for these nerve sectors, in order to better represent local dynamics. The geospatial data associated with shoreline mapping, the quality sheets and the project report, which includes the description of the methodology and results, are available for download. The second project is led by Ouranos and aims to reduce the vulnerability to floods and erosion associated with climate change for communities bordering the St. Lawrence river section. The user will be able to consult two reports resulting from this project: a. Technical report on future trends in the main hydro-climatic factors that influence natural flood risks and bank erosion processes along the fluvial section of the St. Lawrence. The objectives of this report are to draw a portrait of these hazards, covering both the recent past and future projections (2050 and 2080). These factors range from large-scale phenomena, such as the spring flood of the St. Lawrence River or marine uplift, to local phenomena such as freeze-thaw processes that affect clay cliffs and microcliffs. b) Summary of the needs mentioned by the actors of the regional round tables (TCRs) to adapt shoreline communities to the risks of bank erosion and flooding. This report presents a portrait of the participants of the four workshops organized in the fall of 2018, the approach used for the consultation and a summary of the needs expressed. The lists of participants and the detailed reports of each workshop are also included in the annex to this document. The TCRs consulted during these workshops are those of Haut-Saint-Laurent — Greater Montreal, Lac Saint-Pierre, the fluvial estuary and the TCR of Quebec. Following this characterization project, a [Study of bank mobility issues in the St. Lawrence river section] project (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/etude-d-enjeux-de-mobilite-des-berges-dans-le-troncon-fluvial-du-saint-laurent) was carried out.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

Produced as part of the St. Lawrence Action Plan, the Atlas of Territories of Interest for Conservation in the St. Lawrence Lowlands shows the sites where conservation needs are the most pressing. The conservation targets selected (coarse filter) are forest environments, wetlands, open environments (wastelands, perennial crops) and aquatic environments to which are added elements of the fine filter such as exceptional aquatic environments associated with the St. Lawrence corridor (e.g. spawning grounds), alvars, bird colonies, wildlife elements (e.g. nesting sites of Bank Swallows and Chimney Swift, etc.) and important floristic occurrences. Our objective is to determine the sites of interest until a representative threshold of 20% is reached. The geospatial data associated with sites of interest for conservation, the user guide, the methodological report, the metadata as well as the detailed mapping of land use in the St. Lawrence Lowlands, which was an essential basic data for producing this atlas, are available for download. Users can therefore more accurately consult the spatial distribution of sites of interest and the conservation value associated with each plot of habitat for conservation targets (forest environments, wetlands, wastelands, perennial crops, aquatic environments) using geographic information systems (e.g. ArcGIS). Users can also adapt the analysis of this data to their territorial reality and according to specific objectives specific to their interests. Since the conservation of natural environments and species in precarious situations is a shared responsibility, this Atlas will make it possible to meet the priorities of the many organizations involved in the conservation of natural environments in the St. Lawrence Lowlands.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

__The link: *Access the data directory* is available in the section*Dataset Description Sheets; Additional Information*__. Formerly, forest maps were produced by the Land Survey Department of the Ministry of Lands and Forests. Some of these maps dating from 1924 to 1946 still exist and are carefully preserved in the National Archives of Quebec. The information they contain makes it possible to locate and characterize forest areas in certain regions of Quebec. Color codes were then assigned for each of the following classes: young forests, old forests, burned, logged, rocky, savannas, and colonization. These historical forest maps are available in two digital formats (PDF and TIFF).**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

The 1 cm resolution digital surface model (DSM) was created from unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery acquired from a single day survey, July 28th 2016, in Cambridge Bay, Nunavut. Five control points taken from a Global Differential Positioning System were positioned in the corners and the center of the vegetation survey. The DSM covering 525m2 was produced by Canada Centre for Remote Sensing /Canada Centre for Mapping and Earth Observation. The UAV survey was completed in collaboration with the Canadian High Arctic Research Station (CHARS) for northern vegetation monitoring research.
