The Ontario Trail Network (OTN) contains geospatial networks of trails in urban, rural and wilderness settings that are managed by a named organization for transportation, recreation, active living or tourism purposes. The OTN relies on data sharing partnerships with local trail organizations and municipal, provincial and federal governments for ongoing updates and maintenance. Trails in the OTN must be: * associated with a named trail organization * intended for free or paid public access * marked and maintained The OTN collection includes two data classes: * Ontario Trail Network segment derived * Ontario Trail Network access points __Ontario Trail Network segment derived__ This spatial dataset represents segments of trails in the OTN. Trail segments define a linear corridor through the natural or urban environment. The corridors may be single segments or form a looping system. The data includes characteristics about each trail, such as: * trail name * trail association * permitted use * description * length Examples of trail types include: * hiking or walking * cycling * cross-country skiing and snowshoeing * paddling and portage * equestrian * snowmobiling, all terrain vehicle and off-road motorcycle * barrier free (wheelchair accessible) * ice skating Some trail networks have official access points. You can find the location of these points in the OTN_ACCESS_POINT spatial dataset. __Ontario Trail Network access points__ This spatial dataset represents the main access points to a trail system that is part of the OTN. This layer should be used together with OTN Segment Derived. Access points can be spatially related to a trail network based on relative location to a trail segment. Not all trail networks will have official access points.

Data covers natural, rural and urban lands in Ecoregions 6E and 7E, current to 2000-2002. This land use inventory supports key provincial initiatives including: * source water protection * natural spaces * biodiversity conservation * state of resources reporting

Determines the location of Coal Titles within the Province of British Columbia. It is established under the authority of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Grid Regulation. It is defined by a set of UTM coordinates which approximate NAD 27 latitude and longitude positions. Units are the finest level of the Coal Grid. They are defined by UTM coordinates for their corners and the mid points of the four sides. A unit is the base building block for creating the Coal Grid. In a block there are 100 units, 10 rows by 10 columns, and numbered consecutively, starting in the southeast corner. The units are numbered 1 to 10, 11 - 20 etc. always reading from right to left.

A table that stores client numbers and their associated mineral, placer and coal title numbers. Used as a cross reference to the MTA - Mineral, Placer and Coal tenure SVW dataset.

[ARCHIVED] The requirement for non-commercial burn permits has been discontinued.

The wildlife values area and site datasets represent the consolidation of 13 wildlife data classes collected by the Ministry of Natural Resources. The data estimates locations used by wildlife for various reasons, including: * breeding * calving and fawning * denning * feeding * staging * nesting * wintering * general habitat areas * nurseries * travel corridors Locations are represented as points (site) or polygons (area) and may be related to a specific species or described more generally. Wildlife values data is most often used to support policy and legislation associated with the Crown Forest Sustainability Act. The data may also be used to inform a wide range of resource management activities and decisions. There are additional sensitive features related to provincially tracked species and species at risk that are not available as part of the open data package. Sensitive features are subject to licensing and approvals and may be requested by contacting [geospatial@ontario.ca](geospatial@ontario.ca).

The Acidic Precipitation in Ontario Study (A.P.I.O.S.) was established in 1979 by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment to protect the environment from the detrimental effects of acidic deposition and determine the effects of acidic deposition on terrestrial ecosystems. The effect of acid inputs on the environment depends on the quantity and acidity of atmospheric inputs, and the buffering capacity of the terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. The effect of acidic precipitation on soil is potentially significant because the soil is the reservoir of plant nutrients and the source of much of the water for aquatic systems. Changes in the soil's chemistry may therefore be reflected in both the terrestrial and aquatic environments. Information on the effects of acidic precipitation on soils is available from effects near point sources of pollution, from experimentation with simulated rain solutions, from natural changes observed in soil over time, and from models and soil forming theories. Anticipated effects of soil acidification include: reduced pH, leaching of basic cations (such as magnesium and calcium) and other exchangeable plant nutrients, reduction in base saturation and cation-exchange capacity, mobilization of soil-bound metals such as aluminum, and changes in biological activity such as decreased nitrification and soil respiration. The principal objective of the baseline program is to establish a uniform data base for soils across the province. This data base * provides current data to identify future trends, * enables the development of laboratory experiments which define soil sensitivity criteria to acidic precipitation, and * provides information required for sensitivity mapping of soils throughout Ontario.

Feature dataset containing polygon layers for Crown Land cottage lots in Manitoba This feature polygon dataset contains two layers; - Subdivision Polygons, and Cottage Lot Polygons. Manitoba provides an opportunity to purchase a cottage lot located on Crown Land. When new cottage lots become available to the public, these lots are offered through the Cottage Lot Draw process.In the event that new cottage lots are not selected through the draw process, the remaining lots become part of the First-Come, First-Served Cottage Lot Inventory. A current listing of lots available on a first come, first served basis is found in this dataset.This feature dataset is used in the Manitoba Cottage Lots Map and the Manitoba Cottage Lots app.
