A feature is a representation of a real world object, such as a lake, stream, dam or rapid. There are three hydrographic feature classes:  points, lines and polys.   All may impede or be hazardous to waterflow and/or navigation on a watercourse or waterbody. This data shows natural and manmade...

This data was produced in 1999 by rationalizing a 48-class database into 28 distinct classes. The original database was derived from digital, multispectral Landsat Thematic Mapper data recorded between 1986 and 1997, with most of the satellite data frames recorded in the early 1990s. The...

Ontario Integrated Hydrology (OIH) data is used to generate watersheds and support provincial-scale hydrology applications including: * watershed generation * hydrologic modelling * watercourse network analysis Four key datasets are represented in each data package: * stream network (Enhanced...

Statistics include the flood magnitude with the following recurrence intervals: * 1:2 years * 1:2.33 years * 1: 5 years * 1:10 years * 1:20 years * 1:25 years * 1:50 years * 1:100 years * 1:200 years * 1: 500 years These flood statistics can be used for applications such as floodplain delineation...

The OHN is a provincial medium scale originating from data with regional scales of 1: 10,000 in Southern Ontario, 1: 20,000 in Northern Ontario and 1: 50,000 in the Far North. The shoreline is taken from the OHN - Waterbody data class. This data is used for cartographic purposes and web mapping...

This dataset contains manmade linear features in a transportation network, such as bridges and railway tunnels. It does not include roads. The linear features included are: * aerial cable ways * railway bridges * roadway bridges * railway and road bridges * pedestrian/cycle bridges * railway...

Bathymetry is the measurement of water depth in lakes. From the 1940s to the 1990s, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry produced bathymetry maps for over 11,000 lakes across Ontario. The data can be used by the general public and GIS specialists for: * climate change modelling * fish...

Note: This data has been replaced by the Ontario Watershed Boundaries (OWB). We are no longer updating this data. It is best suited for historical research and analysis. A watershed, also known as a catchment basin, includes all land that is drained by a watercourse and its tributaries....

This layer is derived from data provided from Nav Canada. Where possible, it is spatially aligned with Ontario land parcel layers. Data is continually updated. This layer should not be used for navigation purposes. Official LIO title: Airport Official

Watercourses are line features - natural or manmade - that represent the location of flowing surface water. This product requires the use of GIS software. *[GIS]: geographic information system

The ORN is a provincewide geographic database of over 250,000 kilometres of municipal roads, provincial highways, and resource and recreational roads. The ORN is the authoritative source of roads data for the Government of Ontario. Road names in the ORN are the official names provided by the...

This dataset contains linear features constructed by beavers. The linear features are captured to scale on: * single line rivers * lakes * double line rivers We are no longer updating this data. It is best suited for historical research and analysis.

Shows areas where forest insect pests have damaged or killed trees by defoliation, foliage mining and wood boring. Tree mortality rarely occurs as the result of one year's infestation, but from the result of several consecutive years of infestation and other contributing factors affecting...

The Ontario Radar DSM has the following features: * source data: 1 arc second spaceborne C-Band Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (IFSAR) data * MNR Lambert Conformal Conic Projection * vertical datum in both EGM96 and CGVD28, separately * elevation value: floating * local Polynomial...

This dataset contains measurements of pesticide concentrations in stream water samples collected at selected streams in Ontario. The Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) and Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (OMAFRA) jointly collaborate to monitor...

This dataset provides a summary of annual air pollution statistics from 1995 to the current available year for six air pollutants: * Carbon Monoxide * Oxides of Nitrogen (NO, NO2, NOx) * Ozone * Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5) * Sulphur Dioxide * Total Reduced Sulphur The annual statistics...

We've made tables that include the 21 drinking water quality threat activities, set out in O. Reg. 287/07, which may pose a risk to a municipal drinking water supply. The tables also provide all the circumstances associated with each threat. The tables separate drinking water quality threats into...

This dataset contains a yearly comparison summary of MECP's average for meeting the standards. The CSS categories are: * telephone * in-person * e-mail/online * mail/fax * social media [MECP]: Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks [CSS]: Common Service Standards

Data contains project type, project information, project status and project county, district or region.
