Current weather induced overland flood alerts The Hydrologic Forecast Centre (HFC) issues several categories of flood alert throughout the year including riverine flooding due to snowmelt and rainfall, wind and wave induced shoreline flooding and ice pileup, and rainfall induced overland flooding. This layer demonstrates the location and/or extend of current alerts due to rainfall induced overland flooding. The types are defined below:Overland Flood Warning: A severe weather warning that is issued to alert the public that overland flooding is imminent or occurring in the warned area. Overland flooding is a quick onset of flood conditions, usually occurring after heavy rain that may not be linked to a specific waterway or lake. Rainfall intensity and duration, topography, soil conditions and ground cover are factors impacting overland flooding. Overland flooding can also occur because of a sudden release of water held by an ice jam.Overland Flood Watch: A severe weather watch that is issued when conditions are favourable for overland flooding. Normally issued when significant rainfall is expected in locations with saturated soil.

GeoMet-Météo du SMC rend publiquement accessible les données du Service météorologique du Canada (SMC) et d'Environnement et Changement climatique Canada (ECCC) via des services web interopérables et des interfaces de programme (API). Par le biais de standards ouverts, ces services donnent rapidement et gratuitement accès à des milliers de jeux de données et produits météorologiques, climatiques et hydrométriques en temps réel et archivés qui peuvent être intégrés dans les applications spécifiques de l'usager et leurs systèmes d'aide à la décision. Les usagers peuvent développer des applications mobiles, créer des cartes interactives en-ligne, ainsi que de visualiser et animer les données du SMC dans des logiciels de bureau. Les services GeoMet du SMC rendent également possible le découpage de données et la reprojection sur demande, tout autant que la conversion de formats et la visualisation personnalisée de couches de données.
