Mapping land occupancy in Quebec

Mapping land occupancy in Quebec This geographic reference system shows the mapping of land occupancy in Quebec. Land use is defined as physical and biological land cover. It includes artificial surfaces, agricultural areas, forests, forests, semi-natural areas, wetlands, and water bodies. This map covers the territory of southern Quebec and will be extended to northern regions in a later version. The data is generated by a semi-automated classification of high-resolution satellite images, which makes it possible to more accurately identify types of land use. Mapping is available in a unified matrix format. A metadata index as well as a [user guide] (https://diffusion.mern.gouv.qc.ca/diffusion/RGQ/Imagerie/COTQ/Documentation/guide-utilisation.pdf) presenting the data structure and land use classes are available to users.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).** 2025-05-01 Government and Municipalities of Québec geoboutique@mrnf.gouv.qc.ca Form DescriptorsNature and EnvironmentScience and Technology Index of inferences (csv format)CSV https://diffusion.mern.gouv.qc.ca/diffusion/RGQ/Imagerie/COTQ/Index/Index_Inferences_csv.csv Index of inferences (FGDB format)FGDB/GDB https://diffusion.mern.gouv.qc.ca/diffusion/RGQ/Imagerie/COTQ/Index/Index_Inferences_gdb.zip Inference index (GeoJSON format)GEOJSON https://diffusion.mern.gouv.qc.ca/diffusion/RGQ/Imagerie/COTQ/Index/Index_Inferences_json.json Mapping land occupancy in QuebecGeoTIF https://diffusion.mern.gouv.qc.ca/diffusion/RGQ/Imagerie/COTQ/VersionCourante.zip Original metadata (https://www.donneesquebec.ca)HTML https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/fr/dataset/2d3b8f09-7a0f-4740-a190-ee767c27b3be User guidePDF https://diffusion.mern.gouv.qc.ca/diffusion/RGQ/Imagerie/COTQ/Documentation/guide-utilisation.pdf
