The City of Montreal is responsible for the development, maintenance and management of the road network located on its territory. Knowledge of pavement conditions is an important part of the process of managing and determining needs. To obtain this information relating to the condition of the roads, auscultation campaigns using multifunction vehicles equipped with various technologies are carried out from time to time. In recent years, the following campaigns to examine the local street network and the City's administrative arterial network (RAAV) have been carried out: - 2024 - Arterial network (RAAV); - 2022 - Local network; - 2020 - Arterial Network (RAAV); - 2018 - Arterial network (RAAV); - 2015 - Complete road network (local and RAAV); - 2010 - Complete road network (local and RAAV). **This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

A National Forest Fire Behaviour Prediction (FBP) Fuel Type (FT) layer, representing fuel types as described in the Canadian Forest Fire Danger Rating System (CFFDRS) Canada-wide. This data is developed through the Spatialized Canadian National Forest Inventory (SCANFI) dataset, specifically the updated SCANFI version 2.0. The Fuel Type layer is produced at variable resolution to best meet the needs of users: 30m (default) and 100m (ideal for fire growth modelling). The purpose of this dataset is to characterize Canadian forests into Fuel Types for use in various applications, including wildland fire management, research, fuel management, and more. This layer is primarily developed to support national scale applications and uses but can be utilized for localized landbases and adapted as required. This data represents the most up-to-date national product and is updated annually prior to the start of the fire season to incorporate burned area and additional data from the previous year. This data will be updated annually and published online by April 30th of each year. Note: In this product Slash fuel types (S-1, S-2, and S-3) are not represented. Conifer Plantation (C-6) is not represented. Raster Grid Value 13 represents vegetated fuels without an effective match to an existing FBP Fuel Type under this ruleset. Grid Value 11 (corresponding to D-1 Leafless Aspen) is assumed to represent true Deciduous fuels as described in the FBP system.

A national map of Canadian Fire Behaviour Prediction (FBP) Fuel Types (FT) developed from public data sources. The resolution of the raster grid is 30m, classified from the Spatialized Canadian National Forest Inventory (SCANFI) dataset, ecozones of Canada, and the National Burned Area Composite (NBAC). The purpose of the dataset is to characterize Canadian forests into fuel types for use in Fire Behaviour Prediction calculations as well as for situational awareness of national fire potential.
