These three satellite mosaics cover the entire territory of Quebec and include images taken in 2018, 2019 and 2020. The spectral bands are blue (band 2), near infrared (band 8), and short wave infrared (band 11). The Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission includes a constellation of two satellites in...

This map illustrates the terrestrial and marine reliefs of Quebec and surrounding territories, at a scale of 1/2,000,000. Color ranges representing altitude classes and blending offer a summary of the relief and the major physiographic groups of Quebec. This map of the relief of Quebec is...

The SiIGsol-100m maps make it possible to document the spatial evolution of the properties of the mineral part of the soil at a spatial resolution of 100 m. These values were simulated by combining point observation data and spatially explicit covariates, derived from remote sensing data, using...

Permafrost is any soil or rock whose temperature has remained below 0°C for years. In the extreme north of Quebec, it is omnipresent and very thick. At its boreal margin, further south, it appears in the landscape in the form of isolated thin plates, whose thickness is generally less than 10 m....

These digital terrain models (DTM) offer a regional numerical representation of Quebec's relief based on altimetric (altitude) and planimetric (rectangular or geographic) data. They are the result of a collaboration between the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests (MRNF) and Natural...
