    This data shows spatial density of Cereals cultivation in Canada. Regions with higher calculated spatial densities represent agricultural regions of Canada in which Cereals are more expected. Results are provided as rasters with numerical values for each pixel indicating the spatial density calculated for that location. Higher spatial density values represent higher likelihood to have Cereals based on analysis of the 2009 to 2015 AAFC annual crop inventory data.For more information, visit: http://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/e0df876e-f56f-4797-8a7d-758e23bfa2b8

    The Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada's LiDAR Projects dataset was created from existing spatial data. It contains the footprints (outlines) of all the LiDAR data that is openly distributed by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) is a method of acquiring survey points using optical remote sensing technology. The dataset indicates basic information about the location, source and properties of the data. For more information, visit: http://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/a760f9e0-7013-4187-9261-2e69b01edd9a

    The Grain Elevators in Canada dataset maps the list of grain elevators in Canada as provided by the Canadian Grain Commission (CGC). The elevators have been located as much as possible to an actual location rather than generalizing to the station name centroid. Additionally car spot information from CN, CP and the grain companies has been added where this has been published. This dataset attempts to provide a temporal and geographical extent of the grain elevators in Canada. For more information, visit: www.agr.gc.ca/atlas/metadata/5e0b5778-80cd-4697-8b84-23b4a814c1ae

    The "Canada's First Fall Frost Normals (1981-2010)" dataset contains the Mean and Median First Fall Frost Julian day calculated from the ANUSPLIN gridded data set using the date range from January 1, 1981 - December 31, 2010. The dataset also includes the Mean and Median Frost Free Period (given as a count of calendar days). For the purposes of this dataset a Frost Free day is defined as a day where the minimum daily temperature is greater than 0.0 Celsius.For more information, visit: http://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/c293739c-4e16-4384-bff8-e3fdaddc5e5f

    The Evaporative Stress Index (ESI) describes temporal anomalies in evapotranspiration (ET), highlighting areas with anomalously high or low rates of water use across the land surface. Here, ET is retrieved via energy balance using remotely sensed land-surface temperature (LST) time-change signals. LST is a fast- response variable, providing proxy information regarding rapidly evolving surface soil moisture and crop stress conditions at relatively high spatial resolution. The ESI also demonstrates capability for capturing early signals of "flash drought", brought on by extended periods of hot, dry and windy conditions leading to rapid soil moisture depletion. ESI values quantify standardized anomalies (σvalues) in the ratio of clear-sky actual-to-potential ET (fPET), derived using thermal infrared (TIR) satellite imagery from geostationary platforms. To capture a range in timescales, fPET composites are developed for 1, 2 and 3 month moving windows, advancing at 7-day intervals. Standardized anomalies are then computed with respect to normal conditions (mean and standard deviation) for each compositing interval assessed over a period of record from 2000-2015.

    The 2010 Land Use (LU) map covers all areas of Canada south of 60oN at a spatial resolution of 30 metres. The LU classes follow the protocol of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and consist of: Forest, Water, Cropland, Grassland, Settlement and Otherland. The 2010 Land Use (LU) map was developed in response to a need for explicit, high-accuracy, high-resolution land use data to meet AAFC's commitments in international reporting.For more information, visit: http://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/9e1efe92-e5a3-4f70-b313-68fb1283eadf
