This data provides core information on truck travel and commodity flows on the provincial highway network and other significant truck corridors. It provide ESAL information for all provincial highways and other significant truck corridors by road segment. *[ESAL]: Equivalent Single Axle Load

From 2003 to January 12, 2014, Ministry of Children and Youth Services used the following 9 regions: * Eastern * South East * Central East * Central West * South West * Hamilton/Niagara * Toronto * North East * Northern These 9 Service Delivery Division regions were combined with Youth Justice Services regions to create 5 new integrated regions: * North * West * Central * East * Toronto These new regions are effective as of January 13, 2014.

The Ontario Watershed Information Tool (OWIT) is used to calculate information about Ontario’s watersheds. Watersheds are areas of land where surface water converges to a single point. Water professionals in the public and private sectors and academia use OWIT to better understand water flow in Ontario. The general public use OWIT for educational or general interest purposes. You can use the tool to: * create a map of a watershed * characterize the watershed * extract land cover information

There are 21 ministry-funded Children's Treatment Centres across Ontario. These centres provide rehabilitation services to children and youth with moderate or severe disabilities and other special needs. This mapping data represents the service area boundaries of the 21 centres.

This data, also known as the Linear Highway Referencing System (LHRS), is used to locate events along the highway network. Three separate files make up the LHRS dataset: LHRS route is a spatial (GIS) representation of the highway network; LHRS Base Points divide the highway network into base sections with known driven distances; LHRS features points (composite listing) are additional described locations along the highway network. The location of events can be identified by a driven distance, along the LHRS route from a given LHRS Base point or feature point. *[GIS]: Geographic Information System *[LHRS]: Linear Highway Referencing System

The Ontario Raw Point Cloud (Imagery-Derived) is elevation point cloud data created from aerial photography from the Geospatial Ontario (GEO) imagery program. It was created using a pixel-autocorrelation process based on aerial photography collected by the imagery contractor for the GEO imagery program. The dataset consists of overlapping tiles in LAZ format and is 6.29 terabytes in size. Tiles are overlapping because the pixel-autocorrelation process extracts elevation values from overlapping stereo photo strips. No classification has been applied to the point cloud, however they are encoded with colour (RGB) values from the source photography. This data is for geospatial tech specialists, and is used by government, municipalities, conservation authorities and the private sector for land use planning and environmental analysis. __Related data__ For a product in non-overlapping tiles with a ground classification applied, see the [Ontario Classified Point Cloud (Imagery-Derived)](https://geohub.lio.gov.on.ca/datasets/febf17330adb4100a22738e1684b5feb). Raster derivatives have been created from the point clouds for some imagery projects. These products may meet your needs and are available for direct download.

The Ontario Railway Network (ORWN) is seven data classes that use the federal GEOBASE standard for the National Railway Network (NRWN) geospatial data. The seven data classes include: * track * crossing * junctions * marker posts * structure lines * structure points * stations Although the ORWN is mainly used as base data for cartographic products, users will also get railway-associated attributes.

These maps are available for the Far North Land Use Planning Area at 2 scales (1:100,000 and 1:250,000). The maps were created as a resource for community-based Land Use Planning in the Far North of Ontario.

Pavement condition data is collected annually using an Automatic Road Analyzer (ARAN). Based on the automated data, the condition of the pavement is evaluated in terms of distresses (Distress Manifestation Index, DMI), wheel track rutting (in mm) and roughness (International Roughness Index, IRI). These indices are integrated into one Pavement Condition Index (PCI) for overall pavement condition reporting and analysis.

This dataset contains measurements of water (chemistry and algal pigments) and sediment (chemistry and size fraction) quality in nearshore areas of Lake Huron surrounding cage aquaculture operations including North Channel, Manitoulin Island and Georgian Bay. Seasonal ice-free monitoring and sampling occurred in Ontario nearshore areas between 1998-2016. The dataset also contains the limits of detection and quantification for the parameters measured, GPS coordinates and depths (sample, Secchi, composite and maximum) for the lake sampling locations.
