Geographic information for Ontario Health (OH) Regions, and Home and Community Care Support Services (HCCSS) boundaries. The HCCSS boundary file is maintained by Statistics Canada. A link is provided to the Statistics Canada website where you can download the HCCSS boundary file in a variety of formats. Data includes: * Ontario Health Region boundaries * HCCSS boundaries * LHIN office locations (historical)

Contains 2 datasets: * lower and single tier municipalities * upper tier municipalities and districts.

This dataset shows the boundaries of systems of natural heritage features and areas, lands and waters that support connectivity and have significant ecological value. It includes areas defined in provincial plans such as the: * [Greenbelt Plan](https://www.ontario.ca/document/greenbelt-plan-2017) * [Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan](https://www.ontario.ca/page/oak-ridges-moraine-conservation-plan-2017) * [Niagara Escarpment Plan](https://www.escarpment.org/LandPlanning/NEP) * [Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe](https://www.ontario.ca/document/place-grow-growth-plan-greater-golden-horseshoe)  This dataset does not include modifications to systems made by municipal governments as part of their official plans.

Hazardous forest types for wildland fire means forest types assessed as being associated with the risk of high to extreme wildland fire. This data is intended to help inform where further assessment is required and is to be used in conjunction with guidance from the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry .

Data from the former Kemptville, Midhurst and Aylmer Districts were compiled in this dataset to show forest areas on private land, managed by the landowner in cooperation with the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources under the Woodlands Improvement Act (WIA). The WIA allowed for 15-year management agreements between landowners and the MNR to plant and improve woodlands on private land. The WIA was in place from 1966-1999. This data is being provided as-is. No additional data is available, and no updates or maintenance are planned for this dataset.

Municipal Parks are public lands set aside for recreation purposes or to protect natural and cultural environments. We are no longer updating this data. It is best suited for historical research and analysis.

The flood magnitude statistics can be used for applications such as flood plain delineation and design of hydraulic structures. The drought severity statistics can be used for applications such as water abstraction and effluent dilution.

Site Regions and Site Districts of Ontario represent an early Ecological Land Classification (ELC) system originally developed by Angus Hills. This dataset was revised by the ELC Working Group in 2000 to better reflect new information and new technology. The Site Regions of Ontario was used for descriptive, planning, and resource management purposes. This upper level in its hierarchy was most useful for provincial and regional roll-ups of data and for strategic planning. Site Districts of Ontario is a more detailed lower (finer-scale) level of the hierarchy, and was more useful for detailed resource management prescriptions and other local and site planning applications. This layer is designed to be used as a spatial selection tool and as a background layer suitable for overlay and or intersection with numerous scales or current hydrologic data.

These signs serve a variety of purposes ranging from providing general information and safety warnings, to enforcement and land management notices to the general public. Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) signs are erected to support and enforce such provincial acts as the: * Fish and Wildlife Act * Public Lands Act This product requires the use of geographic information system (GIS) software.

A synthesis of available background data on the types and extent of anthropogenic disturbances on this shoreline as a well as to understand the types and amount of remaining natural shoreline features.
