Network for the study and monitoring of forest ecosystems (RESEF)

Created in the late 1980s, the Network for the Study and Monitoring of Forest Ecosystems (RESEF) is a network for the long-term monitoring of natural forests, including more than forty stations spread across Quebec. It aims to characterize the main components of these forest ecosystems, to monitor their evolution and to study their functional interactions.

Each station consists of a sample plot of 0.5 hectares in deciduous stands and 0.25 hectares in coniferous stands. In order to carry out a detailed monitoring of the characteristics of the vegetation, these plots are subdivided into plots of 100 m2 (10 m × 10 m). Each tree with a diameter at chest height (DHP, measured 1.3 m from the ground) greater than or equal to 11 mm present in the plot is numbered and georeferenced, then its DHP and its height are measured. The dimensions of the crown are noted for trees whose DHP is greater than or equal to 91 mm, and the regeneration is inventoried. Each plot is surrounded by a 100 m protection zone, in which the physicochemical properties of soils and foliage are measured. Analysis of growth rings complete the follow-up. Since 1986, data has been collected at regular intervals of 5 or 10 years according to standardized protocols.

Lidar dendrometric map

__The link: *Access the data directory* is available in the section*Dataset Description Sheets; Additional Information*__.


The **dendrometric lidar map** presents various dendrometric characteristics useful in particular in forest planning. It is a product in vector format that is complementary to the results of forest compilations found in the [Original Ecoforest Map and Current Inventory Results] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/resultats-d-inventaire-et-carte-ecoforestiere) and in the [Results of forest compilations by forel] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/compilations-forestieres-originales-par-forel-methode-k-nn). 

The geometric entities defined from the lidar data are at a finer scale than those in the ecoforest map. The main variables predicted and accessible in the product are as follows:


+ Usable volume per hectare by species, species group and certain diameter groups

+ Volume per hectare distributed by product for certain species groups

+ Basal area and number of stems per hectare for certain species groups

+ Average usable volume per rod and average diameter for certain species groups

The volumes compiled in the lidar dendrometric map are variables distinct from the gross standing market volume predicted in the other forest compilation results, in the [Cubing rate and prediction models]
] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/tarif-de-cubage) and for the stems counted in the sample plots of the ecoforest inventory of southern Quebec, for example in the [Temporary sample plots of the fifth inventory] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/placettes-echantillons-temporaires-du-cinquieme-inventaire). This distinct volume is here qualified as “usable” and it excludes woody material between 9.1 cm in diameter without bark and 9.1 cm with bark. The published literature clarifies the differences between volume variables.

This product is available for territories (planning unit, private forest development agency or residual forest territory) with a lidar acquisition and affecting the bioclimatic domains of fir to yellow birch, fir to white birch and spruce moss. Product coverage is not complete and will evolve over the years depending on the lidar acquisition.

__ ⚠️ Notes: __
It is possible to use the [lidar dendrometric data preparation tool] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/carte_dendrometrique_lidar/resource/d447ac59-8310-4fad-95f7-7495a3624466) to study one or more sectors at a finer scale than that of the ecoforest map. The [Lidar dendrometric tool user guide] (https://mrnf.gouv.qc.ca/nos-publications/guide-outil-dendrometrique-lidar/) presents the methodology for its application to meet the needs of operational forest harvest planning.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

Municipal District and County

The Municipal District dataset is comprised of all the polygons that represent Municipal Districts in Alberta. Municipal District is a municipality type defined under the authority of the Municipal Government Act. The formation of a Municipal District occur when a majority of the buildings used as dwellings are on parcels of land with an area of at least 1850 square meters and there is a population of 1000 or more. A municipal district is a government form in rural areas of the province.

NG911 Fire Response Boundary - Whitehorse

The Fire Response Boundary layer defines the geographic area for the primary providers of response services. This layer is used by the ECRF (Emergency Call Routing Function) to perform a geographic query to determine which Emergency Service Providers are responsible for providing service to a location in the event a selective transfer is desired, to direct an Emergency Incident Data Document to a secondary PSAP (Public Safety Answering Point) for dispatch, or to display the responsible agencies at the PSAP. In addition, Emergency Services Boundaries are used by PSAPs to identify the appropriate entities / first responders to be dispatched.

Data was modeled using the NENA NG9-1-1 GIS Data Template (NENA-REF-006. 2 -202 2 ).

OIC - Forest Protection Act

Orders in Council (OIC) are regulations or legislative orders in relation to and authorized by an existing Act. This table identifies Yukon lands withdrawn from disposal, usually by Territorial Order in Council. In Corporate Spatial Warehouse (CSW) data is split out into spatial views by Act under which orders are authorized. The tables are comprehensive and include both active and expired orders. Spatial views show only the active data.

In this table and spatial views, Regulations by Order in Council (OIC) are spatially represented to provide clarity regarding Yukon lands withdrawn from disposal. Spatial data is viewed by the Act under which the order is authorized. Not all orders are for withdrawal, different levels of withdrawal are common and not detailed in GIS attributes. It is important to read OIC documents for specific details ( [https://legislation.yukon.ca/legislation/page_a.html](https://legislation.yukon.ca:443/legislation/page_a.html) ).

Yukon Electoral Districts

Electoral district boundaries are defined by the "Electoral Districts Boundaries Act" (S.Y. 2024, c. 14) and as amended.

The linework was created by interpreting the 2008 Electoral District boundaries (amended in July 2015), and updating/modifying the boundaries to account for population growth and distribution, as of 2024. These boundaries were drawn and aligned using Natural Resource Canada’s CanVec Topographic Data at the 1: 50 000 scale, as well as the National Road Network (NRN), where applicable. 

This dataset is suitable for use in spatial analysis, planning, and geographic visualization at regional and municipal levels.
