The Renewable Energy on Crown Land Policy (PL 4.10.06) covers access to Crown land for potential onshore wind, solar and waterpower development. This information will help renewable energy development on Crown Land.

This dataset is often used by users without access to the Provincial Forest Resource Inventory data, which contains information like municipalities and non-profit groups not affiliated with monitoring or maintaining the Forest Resource Inventory.

An abiotic damage event is a non-biological event -- such as wind or an ice storm -- that has damaged areas of forested land. Abiotic damage event information is mainly used to: * generate summary maps for these events at a general or provincial scale * monitor the extent of damage for forest fire prevention purposes * calculate gross timber volume loss estimates caused by these events This product requires the use of GIS software. *[GIS]: geographic information system

The Ontario Radar DSM has the following features: * source data: 1 arc second spaceborne C-Band Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (IFSAR) data * MNR Lambert Conformal Conic Projection * vertical datum in both EGM96 and CGVD28, separately * elevation value: floating * local Polynomial Interpolation from vector elevation points * spatial resolution: 30 meter * asurface elevation model This product offers significant advancements in elevation data in the province. [Read the details about these advancements and other technical specifications,](https://geohub.lio.gov.on.ca/maps/mnrf::ontario-radar-digital-surface-model/) including data processing, major spatial characteristics of the Radar DSM, and the steps to generate the Northern Ontario Radar DSM. *[MNR]: Ministry of Natural Resources *[DSM]: Digital Surface Model

This dataset covers Forest Resource Inventories between 2001 and 2004. It includes: * stand regeneration * harvested trees * trees lost to wildfire, insects, disease or wind damage Information from forest resource inventories provides the basis for major forest resource planning and ministry policy decisions.

Two classes of beaches are distinguished, those with infrastructure and those without. Beaches with infrastructure: open sandy beaches along the shore of a great lake, within approximately 200 meters of a structure. Beaches without infrastructure: open sandy beaches along the shore of a great lake, not within 200 meters of a structure. The Southern Ontario Land Resource Information System didn't digitize beaches. Beaches were digitized by Austin Troy from Google Earth. This product requires the use of GIS software. *[GIS]: geographic information system

Flood tactical maps have currently been developed for the English River, Rainy River, Montreal River, Black River, Trent River, Madawaska, Magnetawan, Muskoka, Mississippi Valley, French, Sturgeon and Nippissing watersheds. The purpose of these maps is to show more succinctly the physiography of the region, the individual river watersheds, ongoing monitoring, location of dams, high risk dams/reservoirs and communities. We are no longer updating this data. It is best suited for historical research and analysis.

A Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) Road Barrier is when access to a road segment or network is restricted or controlled. Road authorities in Ontario have the mandated responsibility to construct roads or have them constructed on their behalf. They include: * Ministry of Natural Resources (resource access roads and park roads) * Municipalities * Ministry of Transportation * Ministry of Northern Development and Mines * Federal government (roads on federal lands, e.g. national parks, Dept. of Defense) * First Nations * Other, e.g., local roads boards This product requires the use of GIS software. *[GIS]: geographic information system

This data is used for referencing spatial and tabular Forest Resource Processing Facility information. Each facility has one or more processing sites, each dedicated to processing resources for a specific purpose. For example, a pulp, paper and paperboard facility has one processing site to produce pulp, and another one dedicated to producing paper. All facilities that use 1,000 cubic metres or more of forest resources in one year must have a facility licence. This data class has been remodeled in 2014 to make it more flexible as a stand-alone product.
