Station Quality Index (IQS) maps provide a 25-year IQS value for white spruce, black spruce, and jack pine plantations at the scale of the forest polygon of the ecoforest map updated in 2022. These IQS values were estimated with non-parametric models called decision-making tree forests, which were parameterized from spatially explicit variables, derived from climate data, ecological classification, edaphic characteristics and attributes relating to the station. IQS values were estimated based on the current climate period for managed forest land and do not include climate projections. Data can be downloaded as a file in GeoPackage (GPKG) or CSV format. To know the details of the modeling approach used, you are invited to consult the SSRF-30 technical opinion by Barrette et al. (2023).**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

The Costal Flooding Risk Index in GeoJSON format is a geo and time referenced polygon product issued by the Meteorological Service of Canada (MSC) to articulate the coastal flooding risk, impact and probability. Products are issued daily by Storm Prediction Centres and intended to provide early notification, out to 5 days, of coastal flooding due to astronomical tide, storm surge and wave impacts.

L'indice du bien-être des collectivités (IBC) est une méthode qui permet d'évaluer le bien-être socioéconomique des collectivités canadiennes. Divers indicateurs socio-économique de bien-être soit l'éducation, l'activité, le revenu et le logement, sont dérivés à partir du recensement de la population de Statistique Canada et combinés afin de produire un 'score' de bien-être pour chaque collectivité. Ces scores sont employés pour comparer le bien-être au sein des collectivités des Premières nations et inuites au bien-être observés dans les autres collectivités canadiennes. Des valeurs pour les indicateurs peuvent être manquantes pour une collectivité en raison de la non-participation au recensement, de données dont la qualité est insuffisante ou de la taille insuffisante de la population.

The deprivation index was designed in the late 1990s in order to measure the deprivation of Quebecers on a small geographic scale. It is used for the purposes of researching and monitoring trends on social inequalities in health, developing policies and programs, allocating resources, and evaluating services. It is composed of a material dimension and a social dimension that can be analyzed separately or in combination. The index includes six indicators, all from the 2016 census and calculated on the basis of dissemination areas (DAs). The file includes the national (province of Quebec), regional (health regions (RSS)), and local (territorial service networks (RTS), local service networks (RLS), and local community service centers (CLSCs)) versions of the deprivation index. In cases where a broadcast area (AD) straddles two territories (in the RTS, RLS and CLSC versions of the file), it is the AD with the largest proportion of the population that determines which RTS, RLS or CLSC is selected in order to have a single deprivation index value per AD for mapping. All the results by AD are available in the equivalence table on the [*Web site of the National Institute of Public Health of Quebec (INSPQ) *] (https://www.inspq.qc.ca/defavorisation/indice-de-defavorisation-materielle-et-sociale).

The Community Well-Being (CWB) Index is a method of assessing socio-economic well-being in Canadian communities. Various indicators of socio-economic well-being, including education, labour force activity, income and housing, are derived from Statistics Canada's Census of Population and combined to give each community a well-being "score". These scores are used to compare well-being across First Nations and Inuit communities with well-being in other Canadian communities. Indicator values may be missing for a community because of non-participation in the census, inadequate data quality, or insufficient population size.
