    Forest Drought Risk Assessment Tool (ForDRAT) provides estimates of stand-level drought risk for various BC tree species (Interior only at this point). Drought risk estimates are provided across different biogeoclimatic units and relative soil moisture regimes for both current and future climates. The data are currently provided in a spreadsheet, with the following columns: 1. BGC: Biogeoclimatic zone, subzone and variant. 2. Period: Data are provided for three historical periods: (i) 1961-1990 climate normal period; (ii) 1971-2000; and (iii) 1981-2010. Projected drought risk is provided for three future periods: (i) 2020 (2011-2040); (ii) 2050 (2041-2070); and (iii) 2080 (2071-2100). 3. SMR_text: Text description of relative soil moisture regime. 4. SMR: Integer code of relative soil moisture regime. 5. AET_PET: Mean annual ratio of actual to potential evapotranspiration. 6. The remaining columns provide estimated drought risk by species. Species codes are as follows: (i) Pl = lodgepole pine; (ii) Sx = hybrid white spruce; (iii) Fd = Douglas-fir (interior variety); (iv) Bl = subalpine fir; (v) Cw = western redcedar; (vi) Hw = western hemlock; (vii) Lw = western larch; (viii) Py = ponderosa pine; (ix) Ac = black cottonwood; and (x) At = trembling aspen. More species will be added over time. Details on ForDRAT development are provided in the following resources: DeLong et al. 2022: http://library.nrs.gov.bc.ca/digipub/Tr141.pdf DeLong et al. 2019: https://www.for.gov.bc.ca/hfd/pubs/Docs/Tr/TR125.pdf Foord et al. 2017: https://www.for.gov.bc.ca/hfd/pubs/Docs/En/En119.htm Nitschke and Innes. 2008: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0304380007004061?via%3Dihub

    The DND Air Weapons Range dataset is comprised of all the polygons that represent the Air Weapons Range established by the Department of National Defence, Government of Canada, within the Province of Alberta. Air Weapons Range is the area used as a practice and firing range with restricted access provisions and which is owned and operated by the Department of National Defence, Government of Canada.

    This the data for the Winnipeg AVPA Regulation's interactive web map. It contains two polygon datasets that help users determine whether a property is affected by requirements in the regulation and a point dataset to help users navigate to properties This is the data for the Winnipeg Airport Vicinity Protection Area Regulation's interactive web map. It was developed to help interested parties determine whether a property is affected by the Airport Vicinity Protection Area Regulation. To protect and foster the airport’s operations and continued growth, while ensuring orderly and efficient development within Winnipeg, the Province has adopted an Airport Vicinity Protection Area Regulation under The City of Winnipeg Charter. The regulation defines two protection areas called "Area 1" and "Area 2".These areas provide direction on where and what type of residential development may take place near the airport. Area 1 comprises of lands immediately adjacent to the airport, where no new residential development will be permitted, except for replacement of buildings and minor infilling. Area 2 is located further away from the airport, where new or replacement residential development may be constructed. All development within the regulated lands must comply with indoor noise level limits set out in the Regulation.  The parcel boundaries in this interactive map are representations of parcels as defined by plan of subdivision or plan of survey registered at the Land Titles Office. This type of property boundary was chosen because the land division in these plans is used to define property ownership in Manitoba.

    This data collection contains various historical features within Alberta related to the Dominion Forestry Branch (DFB), and the early days of the Alberta Forest Service (AFS). The data collection consists of the following: Historical Forest Reserve Boundaries (1900 to 1930). Timber Berth boundaries (1910 to 1923). Early Ground and Aerial Fire Patrol Routes. Air Stations (1920s). Locations of DFB Forest Surveys (1910 to 1915). AFS Forest and District Boundaries (circa 1938). These datasets provide approximate locations of the features they represent and are intended for use in medium to small-scale mapping. No spatial accuracy tests were conducted on any of the data. Features derived from land locations tied in the Alberta Township System (ATS) are likely to be accurate providing there were no errors in transcribing the locations. However features digitized from old maps will have poor spatial accuracy ranging from several kilometres to a few hundred metres, depending on the map scale, map projection, and the accuracy of the features on the source map.

    This data collection contains the boundaries of the planning zones within the Livingstone-Porcupine Hills area. These datasets contain polygons representing the Planning Zones (Zone 2 – Enhanced and Zone 3 – Extensive) for both areas, as well as the Watershed Analysis Units of which there are seven (7) in the Livingstone PLUZ and three (3) in the Porcupine Hills PLUZ. For more detailed information, see the Livingstone-Porcupine Hills Land Footprint Management Plan (2018) and the detailed metadata for each individual dataset.

    The Resource Management Area (RMA) dataset is comprised of all the polygons that represent the resource management areas of the 17 Integrated Resource Plans (IRP) - Subregional in Alberta. This dataset does not include the RMAs of Local IPR plans due to the resource restraint. Future enhancement of this data set to include Local IRP plans is feasible when resources are available. A Resource Management Area is an area identified within a Sub-Regional IRP plan for more detailed land and resource management intent on a landscape assessment. Generally, a Resource Management Area is characterized by an intent statement and detailed resource management objectives and guidelines. However, there are IRP plans which have their own specific RMA definitions. Plans include, Lakeland Sub-Regional IRP: A RMA is a geographic area of common resource management intent. There is a management intent statement for each resource management area. The intent statement expresses the resource priorities for the area. Kananaskis Country Sub-Regional IRP: RMA areas identify broad units of land within the planning area which have distinct management intents and specific management objectives.

    The “Businesses by Census Subdivision” is derived from the Statistics Canada’s Business Register. At the request of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Statistics Canada aggregated the number of businesses per NAICS classification and employment class for each Census Subdivision. The data includes the individual occurrences of a business in each census subdivision by indicating its NAICS classification and employment class. The name, location, and any other identifying information about the businesses has been suppressed by Statistics Canada.
