The Grain Elevators in Canada - 2018 dataset maps the list of grain elevators in Canada as provided by the Canadian Grain Commission (CGC). The elevators have been located as much as possible to an actual location rather than generalizing to the station name centroid. Additionally car spot information from CN, CP and the grain companies has been added where this has been published. This dataset attempts to provide a temporal and geographical extent of the grain elevators in Canada.

The “Prairie Agricultural Landscapes (PAL)” datasets identify areas of the agricultural portions of the Canadian Prairies with similar land and water resources, land use and farming practices. They are represented by vector polygons. Based on selected attributes from the Soil Landscapes of Canada (SLC) and the 1996 Census of Agriculture, the Prairies were classified into 13 (thirteen) classes of Land Practices Group and five (5) Major Land Practices Groups. Typical attributes used to define the Land Practice Groups include: land in pasture, land in summerfallow, crop mixture, farm size and the level of chemical and fertilizer inputs. The five (5) Major Groups were devised to help better understand the relationships between the groups.

These datasets show the areas where major crops can be expected within the agricultural regions of Canada. Results are provided as rasters with numerical values for each pixel indicating the level of spatial density calculated for a specific crop type in that location. Regions with higher spatial density for a certain crop have higher likelihood to have the same crop based on the previous years mapped crop inventories.

Map showing where custom packaging services in Manitoba are located. This map shows where custom packaging services in Manitoba are located. A contract packager (subcontractor) is a company that manufactures and packages food products sold by other businesses. This list is not exhaustive and does not constitute a recommendation for services. For more information, visit the Manitoba Agriculture website. <o:p></o:p>This map uses the Manitoba contract packaging point layer and is part of the Manitoba contract packaging app. **This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

This data shows spatial density of spring wheat cultivation in Canada. Regions with higher calculated spatial densities represent agricultural regions of Canada in which spring wheat is more expected. Results are provided as rasters with numerical values for each pixel indicating the spatial density calculated for that location. Higher spatial density values represent higher likelihood to have spring wheat based on analysis of the 2009 to 2021 AAFC annual crop inventory data.

In 2018, the Earth Observation Team of the Science and Technology Branch (STB) at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) repeated the process of generating annual crop inventory digital maps using satellite imagery to for all of Canada, in support of a national crop inventory. A Decision Tree (DT) based methodology was applied using optical (Landsat-8, Sentinel-2) and radar (RADARSAT-2) based satellite images, and having a final spatial resolution of 30m. In conjunction with satellite acquisitions, ground-truth information was provided by: provincial crop insurance companies in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, & Quebec; point observations from the BC Ministry of Agriculture, & the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs; and data collection supported by our regional AAFC Research and Development Centres in St. John’s, Kentville, Charlottetown, Fredericton, Guelph, and Summerland

Mapping application offering hourly weather updates provided by Manitoba Agriculture. Manitoba Agriculture's weather program operates over 100 weather stations that provide regularly updated data on air temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, wind speed and direction, soil temperature, soil temperature, soil moisture, and barometric pressure. Warning: The Manitoba Agriculture Weather Program reports data at intervals of 15 minutes, 1 hour, and 1 day. However, values may change due to corrections, calibrations, or disturbances caused by equipment malfunction. The data shown has undergone minimal quality control. The Manitoba Agriculture Weather Program provides data “as is” and disclaims all warranties, express or implied. In no event will the Manitoba Agriculture Weather Program be liable for any direct or indirect, incidental, incidental, consequential, special, or exemplary damages resulting from the use or misuse of the data or products and services derived from the data.

The “Municipal Solid Waste Biomass Inventory” dataset is a stand-alone product that provides information on the calculated amount of Municipal Solid Waste within each BIMAT grid cell that includes a population centre. Data was provided by National Research Council Canada, with estimates based on census data collected in 2016. This dataset was calculated using an area-weighted analysis between population centres across Canada, Municipal Solid Waste data and the Biomass Report Framework fishnet. It includes information for total residential municipal solid waste, total organic waste (food and yard) and total paper waste.
