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

Examples include: * shoreline access * enhanced shoreline access (with a dock or pier) * boat launches This data was created to be used as part of the Fish ON-Line mapping application.

Depicts the internal boundaries of the Niagara Escarpment Plan area. The 7 land use designations are: * escarpment natural area * escarpment protection area * escarpment rural area * [minor urban centre](/dataset/minor-urban-centres-in-the-niagara-escarpment-plan) * urban area * escarpment recreation area * mineral resource extraction area The land use designations represent the internal boundaries between designations within the Niagara Escarpment Plan. These internal boundaries are not intended to be site-specific and should not be used for accurate measurements. The exact delineation of designation boundaries on specific sites will be done by the implementing body through the application of the designation criteria as outlined in Part 1 of the Niagara Escarpment Plan, utilizing the most detailed or up-to-date information available and site inspection.

The outer boundary of the Province of Ontario. Land identifying the extent of the Province of Ontario for mapping purposes. This product requires the use of geographic information system (GIS) software.

Built-Up Areas are man-made land cover features, ranging from small hamlets at rural cross roads to large cities. This product requires the use of geographic information system (GIS) software.

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.

The Big Picture 2002 is a legacy geographic information system (GIS) based landscape analysis. It is a partnership between the Nature Conservancy of Canada and the Ministry of Natural Resources’ Natural Heritage Information Centre. Many digital layers covering the Mixedwood Plains ecozone plus a portion of the Ontario Shield ecozone were compiled for this analysis. These layers include: * evaluated wetlands * forest cover * old growth forest * rare species and communities * waterbodies and watercourses * parks and protected areas * Areas of Natural and Scientific Interest (ANSIs) The data layers are overlaid in a GIS system and points are assigned to the features in each layer according to their conservation value. Core natural areas were identified by a combination of minimum size and a minimum point score per pixel. Potential linkages between these cores were computed by assigning scores to the landscape surrounding the cores based on the probable resistance to wildlife movement. We do not currently use this methodology for similar analyses.

This dataset contains miscellaneous point features including: * mine head frames * cadastral iron bar (a type of survey monument) * historical monuments * horizontal control monuments * mile posts * smoke stacks We are no longer updating this data.
