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.

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 geographic information system (GIS) software.

Geographic Information System (GIS) data with the following mapping layers from the Greenbelt Plan: * outer boundaries * protected countryside and urban river valley designations * specialty crop areas (Niagara tender fruit, grape area and Holland Marsh) * settlement areas (towns, villages and hamlets) * river valley connections. The data also contains associated policy designation mapping.

Geographical information for the head offices of Community Care Access Centres (CCACs). The CCACs are the local organizations established by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care to give people access to government-funded home and community services and long-term care homes. They also provide information about and connect people to local community support service agencies to arrange services. The geographical information includes: * organization name * city * address * postal code *[CCACs]: Community Care Access Centres This dataset is no longer collected and as such will no longer be updated. The information provided here references the last collection.

[ARCHIVED] Amendments to the Mortgage Act came into effect Nov 1, 2021 which created new mortgage license types and a new public register of licensed mortgage brokerages, mortgage lenders and mortgage administrators.

The Ontario in-filled climate data collection includes information from 339 monitoring stations maintained by the Meteorological Service of Canada. Historical climate data commonly has missing hourly and daily records due to equipment malfunctions, temporary site maintenance or other reasons. “In-filling” is a technical process that draws on data from nearby stations to fill in these missing records. This collection contains fully in-filled precipitation and temperature records for Ontario from 1950 to 2005. It is organized into eight separate databases in Microsoft Access format. One of the databases contains daily in-filled climate records. The remaining seven databases contain hourly in-filled climate records divided into regions for manageability.

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

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.

From 2003 to January 12, 2014, Ministry of Children and Youth Services used the following 9 regions: * Eastern * South East * Central East * Central West * South West * Hamilton/Niagara * Toronto * North East * Northern These 9 Service Delivery Division regions were combined with Youth Justice Services regions to create 5 new integrated regions: * North * West * Central * East * Toronto These new regions are effective as of January 13, 2014.

This data set shows utility points that provide services for: * power * water * communications * heating fuel They include: * fibre optic stations * hydro stations * lock pumping stations This product requires the use of geographic information system (GIS) software.
