Get mapping data related to the Northwest Greater Toronto Area Transmission Corridor Identification Study. In June 2019, the Ministry of Energy, Northern Development and Mines along with Ontario’s electricity system planner, the Independent Electricity System Operator, launched the Northwest GTA Transmission Corridor Identification Study to identify an appropriate corridor of land for use by future power lines if and when the need arises.

This boundary is used in the management of watershed-based planning by the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority (LSRCA). It is used to support the Lake Simcoe Protection Act (LSPA).

The spatial record for all the province's geographic areas affected by provincial level, area-specific land use policy. This layer may contain geometry from the: * provincial parks-regulated layer * conservation reserves-regulated layer * natural heritage values area layer *  wilderness areas layer * crown land MNR acquisitions layer * crown land MNR unpatented layer * CLUPA geometry (enhanced management areas and general use areas) layer Not to be used as a source of protected areas (provincial park, conservation reserve, etc.), crown land or private land boundaries. Official GEO title: CLUPA Provincial

This area has been identified as important for species movement. Analysis was completed on the natural heritage features of the fragmented areas of this region. This region has considerable development pressures in Ontario and New York State. Official GEO title: Algonquin to Adirondack (A2A) Landscape Analysis

The Ontario in-filled climate data collection includes information from 339 monitoring stations maintained by the Meteorological Service of Canada. Historical climate data commonly has missing hourly and daily records due to equipment malfunctions, temporary site maintenance or other reasons. “In-filling” is a technical process that draws on data from nearby stations to fill in these missing records. This collection contains fully in-filled precipitation and temperature records for Ontario from 1950 to 2005. It is organized into eight separate databases in Microsoft Access format. One of the databases contains daily in-filled climate records. The remaining seven databases contain hourly in-filled climate records divided into regions for manageability.

## Get data on boundaries of local climatic areas used for forest fire weather forecasting. This dataset shows the boundaries of administrative areas used for forest fire weather forecasting. North of the French River, boundaries correspond closely with Environment Canada’s areas for public weather forecasting. South of the French River, 25 Environment Canada areas are combined into six larger areas for provincial forecasting.

This dataset was created to provide land use information on the Oak Ridges Moraine and is the basis for Ontario Regulation 140/02. The data was digitized at 1:10,000 or better using 0.5 metre air photos, MNR, DMTI, Upper and Lower-tier Official Plans and digital vector layers.

This dataset is used for national and coarse-scale provincial reporting such as analyses of climate, demographics and watersheds.

This dataset provides a listing and relevant details for forest resource processing facilities (mills) that are licensed and operating or require a licence to operate in Ontario. Contents include: * Facility Code * Name * Facility Type * MNRF Region * Address * City * Province * Postal Code * Latitudinal and Longitudinal Coordinates All facilities that use 1,000 cubic metres or more of forest resources in one year require a facility licence.

Natural areas abutting Lake Simcoe are areas of a continuous vegetation community class that have a minimum size of 1 ha and are wholly or partially within the 30 m buffer zone of the Lake Simcoe shoreline. These areas may be a narrow band of vegetation along the shoreline or larger areas, which extend a greater distance from the shoreline. As described in policy 6.31-SA, the MNR and the MOE will map the location of natural areas abutting Lake Simcoe.
