Forest Management in Canada, 2017
The Forest Management in Canada, 2017 story map provides an interactive generalized classification of forest management in Canada.
Forests cover large areas of Canada but only some of these forests are actively managed. The 2017 Map of Forest Management in Canada provides a generalized classification of forest management in Canada, including: protected areas Treaty/Settlement Lands (including Treaty Lands identified in final agreements, land claim agreements and settlements) Indian reserves other federal reserves (including military training areas) provincial and territorial reserves and restricted use areas private lands long-term tenure areas short-term tenure areas other The Map of Forest Management in Canada dataset provides a wall-to-wall classification of lands in Canada in 2017. It does not differentiate areas of forest from non-forest. The 2017 Map of Forest Management in Canada differs from maps defining the area designated as “managed forest” for greenhouse gas inventory reporting purposes and does not replace those maps. Instead, the Map of Forest Management in Canada shows areas that are currently managed, as of June 2017, and provides generalized management type classification for those areas. Collaborating agencies plan to update the dataset periodically as needed, and remain open to receiving advice from experts concerning refinement priorities for future versions.Source: This application shows forest management in Canada areas, as of June 2017, and includes data provided by Alberta Agriculture and Forestry; British Columbia Ministry of Forests; Manitoba Sustainable Development; Natural Resources Canada; New Brunswick Department of Energy and Resource Development; Newfoundland & Labrador Department of Fisheries and Land Resources; Northwest Territories Department of Environment and Natural Resources; Nova Scotia Department of Lands and Forestry; Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry; Prince Edward Island Department of Communities, Land & Environment; Québec Ministère des Forêts, de la Faune et des Parcs; Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment; and Yukon Energy, Mines and Resources.· This main story map application includes the following Forest Management in Canada web maps and web apps: Forest Management in Canada Classification Map, 2017 Water Map (Managed Forest Code 100) Protected Map (Managed Forest Code 20) Treaty/Settlement Map (Managed Forest Code 40) Federal Reserve Map (Managed Forest Code 31) Indian Reserve Map (Managed Forest Code 32) Restricted Map (Managed Forest Code 33) Private Map (Managed Forest Code 50) Long-Term Tenure Map (Managed Forest Code 11) Short-Term Tenure Map (Managed Forest Code 12) Other Map (Managed Forest Code 13) Canada’s Forested Areas Classification Map, 2017 Canada’s Forest Management Classification Web App, 2017 Canada’s Forest Management Classification and Treed Areas Web App (Simplified) Canada’s Forest Management Classification and Treed Areas Web App
