River ice roughness as it is actively monitored on selected rivers by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) using satellite imagery for the mitigation of ice jam associated risks. In order to mitigate ice jam induced flood risks, Natural Resources Canada emergency geomatics service (EGS) may be...

Flood extent polygons and their footprints representing floods from previous years throughout Canada as monitored by Natural Resources Canada using satellite imagery for emergency response. In response to large flood events, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), for the provision of emergency...

Flood extent polygons for the past three months throughout Canada as monitored by Natural Resources Canada using satellite imagery for emergency response. In response to large flood events, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), for the provision of emergency geomatics services, may be activated...

Current year record of river ice roughness as monitored on selected rivers by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) using satellite imagery for the mitigation of ice jam associated risks. In order to mitigate ice jam induced floods risks, Natural Resources Canada emergency geomatics service (EGS)...

Flood extent polygons representing active floods (last three days) throughout Canada as monitored by Natural Resources Canada using satellite imagery for emergency response. In response to large flood events, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), for the provision of emergency geomatics...

Representation of the causes of flooding events in the form of multiple points. The point groupings correspond to the set of locations that were affected by the same event. The inventory of past flooding events was compiled from various public sources and standardized into a common data model....

GeoAI are buildings, hydrography, forests, and roads automatically extracted using Deep Learning models applied to a source dataset, typically aerial or satellite images. The primary aim of GeoAI is to increase Canada's availability of high-resolution foundational geospatial data for both spatial...

This national map of flood susceptibility or flood prone areas is based on patterns of historic flood events as predicted by an ensemble machine learning model. The recommended use is national, provincial or regional scale and can be used as a guide for identifying areas for further...

The Canada Flood Map inventory shows areas in Canada where a copy of a flood hazard map has been collected by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan). The inventory does not display flood zones or extents, but provides information on how to access these flood hazard maps. Depending on the license and...

Data represents surface water occurrence frequency (percentage), which describes the frequency for each grid appeared as water in the 30 years time period of 1991 to 2020. The data covers Canada’s entire landmass including all transboundary watersheds, and is at 30-meter spatial resolution. The...

The Atlas of Canada Small-scale Reference Maps are a collection of digital and print-ready 8.5” x 11” sized maps of Canada’s provinces and territories. It also includes a collection of maps of the continents and the World. Each map is available in three formats – colour, black and white, and...

A collection of magnetotelluric surveys performed by the Geological Survey of Canada from 1987 to 2018.

This release makes available the West Canadian Coast part of the results of an ongoing effort to scan and convert all our inventory of analog marine survey field records (seismic, sidescan and sounder) to digital format. These records have been scanned at 300 dpi and were converted into JPEG2000...

The dataset contains land surface evapotranspiration (ET) for Canada's landmass at a spatial resolution of 5-km. The values represent the annual total amount of ET in mm of H2O, averaged over a 38-year period of 1979-2016. The ET was produced by the Land Surfae Model EALCO (Ecological...

The National Rail Network (NRWN) is a geometric and attributive description of the Canadian rail network. The NRWN product consists of the features classes: Track Segment, Railway Crossing, Railway Station, Marker Post, Junction and Railway Structure. Descriptive attributes include amongst...

The Canadian Wind Turbine Database contains the geographic location and key technology details for wind turbines installed in Canada. This dataset was jointly compiled by researchers at CanmetENERGY-Ottawa and by the Centre for Applied Business Research in Energy and the Environment at the...

The Geological Survey of Canada (Atlantic and Pacific) has collected marine survey field records on marine expeditions for over 50 years. This release makes available the results of an ongoing effort to scan and convert our inventory of analog marine survey field records (seismic, sidescan and...
