Mosaic of aerial orthophotographs of the ecoforestry inventory of southern Quebec
The orthophotographs used to produce this mosaic are acquired by aerial survey in order to meet the needs of the Ecoforestry Inventory of Southern Quebec (IEQM). These images serve, among other things, to feed into the process of photo-interpretation and production of the ecoforest map essential for sustainable forest management. This mosaic is the result of an assembly of orthophotographs produced between 2002 and 2020. Each image was positioned geographically taking into account the effect of the relief. The spatial resolution varies from 20 to 30 cm. The type of images acquired varies: black and white, infrared, or natural (red, green, and blue colors). The images used to produce the mosaic are acquired over a cycle of about 10 years. This cycle is synchronized with the IEQM calendar. This mosaic covers almost all of the territory south of the 52nd parallel of the Quebec public forest. Territories acquired through partnerships were excluded. The orthophotography mosaic is only accessible for visualization using the web mapping service. It can be superimposed transparently on the topographic layers of LiDAR in order to contribute to a better analysis of the territory.This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).
