Pacific Great Blue Heron (Ardea Herodias fannini) Potential Area of Occupancy, British Columbia

Pacific Great Blue Heron (Ardea Herodias fannini) Potential Area of Occupancy, British Columbia This file includes the spatial boundaries for the Pacific Great Blue Heron Potential Area of Occupancy for its entire Canadian range. The Potential Area of Occupancy is a simple model that highlights the heron's preferred forest habitat at a high level. Potential Area of Occupancy is defined as terrestrial areas within the Coastal Douglas Fir and Coastal Western Hemlock Biogeoclimatic zones that are less than 10 km from a potential foraging area and west of the Cascades mountain range. Potential foraging areas are defined as the entire coastline and major river systems less than 1000 m in elevation. Refer to the "Management Plan for the Great Blue Heron fannini subspecies (Ardea herodias fannini) in Canada" on the SARA Regristry for more information. The Great Blue Heron fannini subspecies (Ardea herodias fannini, also known as the Pacific Great Blue Heron) has been assessed as a species of Special Concern in Canada (COSEWIC 2008) and has been listed on Schedule 1 of the federal Species at Risk Act since 2010. Canada holds approximately half the global population of the Pacific Great Blue Heron. 2022-02-21 Environment and Climate Change Canada open-ouvert@tbs-sct.gc.ca Nature and EnvironmentGreat Blue HeronArea of OccupancyBritish Columbia Web Map Service (WMS)WMS http://ec.gc.ca/arcgis/services/D01/456ce087-4711-442c-8445-30520f96e98e/MapServer/WMSServer?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS Esri REST: Map ServiceWMS https://ec.gc.ca/arcgis/rest/services/D01/456ce087-4711-442c-8445-30520f96e98e/MapServer/0 Keyhole Markup Language (KML)KML https://ec.gc.ca/arcgis/rest/services/D01/456ce087-4711-442c-8445-30520f96e98e/MapServer/generateKml?docName=Output&l:0=on&layers=0&layerOptions=nonComposite GeoJSONJSON https://ec.gc.ca/arcgis/rest/services/D01/456ce087-4711-442c-8445-30520f96e98e/MapServer/exts/GeoJSONServer/GeoJSON?query=true&layer=0&f=pjson Web Feature Service (WFS)WFS http://ec.gc.ca/arcgis/services/D01/456ce087-4711-442c-8445-30520f96e98e/MapServer/WFSServer?request=GetCapabilities&service=WFS GBHE_AOO_20140915_LRSHP http://donnees.ec.gc.ca/data/species/protectrestore/great-blue-heron-species-at-risk-british-columbia/pacific-great-blue-heron-ardea-herodias-fannini-potential-area-of-occupancy-british-columbia/GBHE_AOO_20140915_LR.zip View EC Data Mart (English)HTML http://donnees.ec.gc.ca/data/species/protectrestore/great-blue-heron-species-at-risk-british-columbia/pacific-great-blue-heron-ardea-herodias-fannini-potential-area-of-occupancy-british-columbia View EC Data Mart (French)HTML http://donnees.ec.gc.ca/data/species/protectrestore/great-blue-heron-species-at-risk-british-columbia/pacific-great-blue-heron-ardea-herodias-fannini-potential-area-of-occupancy-british-columbia?lang=fr GBHE_AOO_20140915_LRCSV http://donnees.ec.gc.ca/data/species/protectrestore/great-blue-heron-species-at-risk-british-columbia/pacific-great-blue-heron-ardea-herodias-fannini-potential-area-of-occupancy-british-columbia/GBHE_AOO_20140915_LR.csv GBHE_AOO_20140915_LRJSON http://donnees.ec.gc.ca/data/species/protectrestore/great-blue-heron-species-at-risk-british-columbia/pacific-great-blue-heron-ardea-herodias-fannini-potential-area-of-occupancy-british-columbia/GBHE_AOO_20140915_LR.json Web Map Service (WMS)WMS http://ec.gc.ca/arcgis/services/D01/456ce087-4711-442c-8445-30520f96e98e/MapServer/WMSServer?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS Esri REST: Map ServiceHTML https://ec.gc.ca/arcgis/rest/services/D01/456ce087-4711-442c-8445-30520f96e98e/MapServer/0
