    Inventory of buildings and land subject to the right of pre-emption. The right of pre-emption allows the City of Montreal to buy certain buildings or land in priority over any other purchaser in order to carry out projects for the benefit of the community.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

    Digital terrain models offer a representation of the relief south of the 52nd parallel, in the form of an elevation matrix. This matrix makes it possible to visualize the territory in perspective and to perform three-dimensional spatial analyses, using appropriate software. A module specialized in three-dimensional data processing, such as 3D Analyst or Spatial Analyst, is required to visualize the digital altitude model in three dimensions. This digital altitude model (10-meter pixel matrix) is obtained by processing altimeter data (level curves and elevation points) from ** [topographic databases on a scale of 1/20,000] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/fr/dataset/cartes-topographiques-a-l-echelle-de-1-20-000) **.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

    The dataset comprises a topographic map of Northeast Greenland delivered as a digital elevation model (DEM) with a spatial resolution of 8 metres. The DEM is provided as GeoTIFF and represents a seamless elevation surface covering the study area. The dataset was produced using input data from the ArcticDEM project, which is based on stereo imagery from the DigitalGlobe WorldView-1, WorldView-2 and WorldView-3 satellites. The elevation model integrates selected DEM strips recorded between 2012 and 2015 and has been processed to ensure consistency and continuity across the mosaic.

    __The link: *Access the data directory* is available in the section*Dataset Description Sheets; Additional Information*__. In 2020, the Forest Inventory Directorate of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests (MRNF) began the production of vector layers of riparian ecotones. This type of layer is produced using a series of geomatic tools that use the canopy height model (MHC) and the topographic humidity index (TWI) produced from aerial LiDAR, as well as data from the ecoforest map of southern Quebec. The development of the tools and their configuration were carried out in collaboration with the forest hydrology laboratory at Laval University. The layer thus produced aims to delimit riparian ecotones, which are defined as [_ “a transition zone between the aquatic environment and the forest, characterized by muscinal, herbaceous or shrubby vegetation in wetlands and sometimes including a few scattered trees” _] (https://mffp.gouv.qc.ca/RADF/guide/chapitre-i/article-1/). The layer produced defines the area where a significant change in tree heights is observed on the MHC LiDAR. However, if deforestation, agricultural fields, or natural disturbances are adjacent to a body of water, no change in tree heights is observed. In these cases, the tool instead uses potential water accumulation data from the Topographic Humidity Index (TWI), as well as data from the ecoforest map, to delineate riparian ecotones. On the other hand, the tool does not make it possible to filter all of these exceptional cases and we thus find a few “false coastal ecotones” in the layer. For example, deforested land along a body of water can sometimes be included in the ecotone layer. Before using these data, it is therefore recommended to plan validation work by photo-interpretation or by means of field visits. It should also be noted that ecotone data is primarily used to support forest mandates such as the delineation of buffer zones along watercourses. Therefore, they are not contours of wetlands within the meaning of the Act respecting the conservation of wetlands and bodies of water. **This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

    __The link: * Access the data directory* is available in the section*Dataset description sheets; Additional information*__. Hydrographic derivatives from LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) were produced as part of the provincial LiDAR sensor data acquisition project. These products provide information on the geographical position of water flow beds on the territory as well as their nature (permanent or intermittent watercourse). These layers represent the path that water should take depending on the topography. It is therefore a potential flow bed that does not take into account the nature of the surface deposit or underground pipes. These vector layers are preliminary and do not replace reference hydrographic layers such as the Quebec Hydrographic Network Geobase (GRHQ). They are primarily used to support forest operations. These layers will also be improved over the coming years thanks to a collective effort by two ministries, namely the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests (MRNF) and the Ministry of the Environment, the Fight against Climate Change, and Wildlife and Parks (MELCCFP). Data on potential flow beds are distributed, as of March 2022, by water drainage unit (UDH), a division that respects the natural boundaries of the watershed. This division uses the same codes and approximately the same spatial limits of the UDHs of the GRHQ. Data for each UDH is available in Geodatabase (GDB) or GeoPackage (GPKG) format.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

    ### #Des hydrocoherent numerical terrain models (MNT-HC) are also offered south of the 52nd parallel. They are accessible via the [High Resolution Quebec Hydrographic Network Geobase (GRHQ-HR)] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/geobase-du-reseau-hydrographique-du-quebec-a-haute-resolution-grhq-hr) These hydrocoherent numerical terrain models (DTM — HC) offer a regional numerical representation of Quebec relief based on altimetric (altitude) and planimetric (rectangular or geographic) data. They are the result of a collaboration between the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests (MRNF) and Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) within the framework of the Agreement to produce an up-to-date digital map of northern Quebec and the creation of the product “National Hydro Network (RHN)” for the territory of Quebec. When integrated into a geographic information system, these models allow the implementation of multiple types of spatial analyses such as natural risks, landscape analysis, infrastructure implementation, etc. Hydrocoherent MNTs are obtained as a result of hypsometric and hydrographic data processing that uses the concept of hydrocoherence, which consists in interpolating altimetric values by ensuring a connected drainage network and an accurate representation of ridges and watercourses. The oriented RHN filament makes it possible to grade lakes and to control the altimetric descent of watercourses. The final product is a quality portrait of relief on a scale of 1/50,000. DMTs provide altitude values that are based on a grid with a resolution of 0.324 arcseconds in geographic coordinates, which corresponds to a resolution of about 10 meters in the field.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

    Land use and occupancy density reflect, at the normative level, the main directions of land use planning in the agglomeration of Montreal. The data available in this set mainly comes from the mapping in Chapter 3 of the Land Use Plan and Development Plan for the Agglomération de Montréal, i.e. __land usage__ and __occupancy density__. This urban planning and development plan for the agglomeration of Montreal outlines the main parameters that will guide the Montreal agglomeration council in decisions relating to land use planning in the coming years. From a perspective of sustainable development, this document guides decisions that shape the territory in order to promote compact and greener neighborhoods, to increase public and active transport travel, to support the economic dynamism of the agglomeration and to highlight areas of interest. Consult the [interactive map] (https://smvt.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=d152aaa85b6f4e9086cecdf10c7456db) of the Planning and Development Plan to visualize the thematic data. **This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
