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.

The Baseline hydrology statistics (stream flow regime) in the Southwestern Hudson Bay and Nelson River watershed systems were produced for the Water Survey of Canada's HYDAT database. These baseline statistics provide information on the water quantity at each Water Survey Canada gauge location . They also provide a summary at a primary watershed scale. This data helps address the previous data gaps in the Far North region. Applications include: * land use planning * integrated watershed management * climate change studies * hydropower studies

Data show where pathogens - fungal, bacillial or viral - have caused damage by reducing growth rates, tree vigor or have killed trees. Examples of forest diseases include White Pine Blister Rust, Armillaria Root Rot etc. The Government of Ontario tracks forest damage events to help proactively manage the detrimental effects to our forests. We monitor the threat and spread of invasive forest pest insect species in Ontario. The data is also important to the Forest Management Planning process in calculating timber volume loss within affected areas. This product requires the use of geographic information system (GIS) software.

The Ontario Radar Digital Surface Model (DSM) has the following features: * source data: 1 arc second spaceborne C-Band Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (IFSAR) data * Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) Lambert Conformal Conic Projection * vertical datum in both EGM96 and CGVD28, separately * elevation value: floating * local Polynomial Interpolation from vector elevation points * spatial resolution: 30 meter * asurface elevation model This product offers significant advancements in elevation data in the province. [Read the details about these advancements and other technical specifications,](https://geohub.lio.gov.on.ca/maps/mnrf::ontario-radar-digital-surface-model/) including data processing, major spatial characteristics of the Radar DSM, and the steps to generate the Northern Ontario Radar DSM.

Statistics include the flood magnitude with the following recurrence intervals: * 1:2 years * 1:2.33 years * 1: 5 years * 1:10 years * 1:20 years * 1:25 years * 1:50 years * 1:100 years * 1:200 years * 1: 500 years These flood statistics can be used for applications such as floodplain delineation and the design of hydraulic structures.

This data is used for referencing spatial and tabular Forest Resource Processing Facility information. Each facility has one or more processing sites, each dedicated to processing resources for a specific purpose. For example, a pulp, paper and paperboard facility has one processing site to produce pulp, and another one dedicated to producing paper. All facilities that use 1,000 cubic metres or more of forest resources in one year must have a facility licence. This data class has been remodeled in 2014 to make it more flexible as a stand-alone product.

Often these parcels were surveyed before township surveys in their area. They may also be supplemental to them (as is the case with some Cadastral Islands). Sometimes these were laid out after a township survey was done, so some may be part of a geographic township. Cadastral Location includes the following: GTP Block - Timber block used by the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway for feeding steam engines, building bridges, and for supplying railway ties. Mining Location - A parcel of land whose surveyed boundaries were laid out during the late nineteenth century for the Crown sale of land for mining purposes to groups or individuals. Cadastral Island - Island delineated on survey plans. It may or may not be part of a geographic township. Other Location - A parcel of land whose surveyed boundaries were laid out during the late nineteenth century for the Crown sale of land for various agricultural or farming purposes to groups or individuals. These locations are mainly found in Northern Ontario and also exist in the un-surveyed territories.

A feature is a representation of a real world object, such as a lake, stream, dam or rapid. There are three hydrographic feature classes:  points, lines and polys. All may impede or be hazardous to waterflow and/or navigation on a watercourse or waterbody. This data shows natural and manmade point features. Examples include: * waterfalls * rapids * rocks * Sea Lamprey barriers * shipwrecks This product requires the use of geographic information system (GIS) software.

This data breaks down spring, fall and total harvest numbers by: * wildlife management unit (WMU) * calendar year Harvest numbers are based on mandatory reports received from successful turkey licence holders. These are absolute numbers and are not statistically projected as with the bear, deer, and moose hunting activity and harvest estimates. Missing values represent no open season.

This spatial dataset represents the boundaries of areas designated under the [Aggregate Resources Act, R.S.O 1990](https://www.ontario.ca/laws/statute/90a08) where a licence or permit is required for aggregate extraction. Under the Act, all aggregate operations must be licensed on private land or permitted on Crown land. Use our interactive [Pits and Quarries map](https://www.ontario.ca/page/find-pits-and-quarries) to find aggregate designated areas and authorized sites.
