Harmonized 2021 census geography for Quebec

Geographic database containing the result of Statistics Canada's __2021 Census geography harmonization process__. 

Harmonization is a process of editing geographic boundaries in order to adjust them spatially to the official geographic base.

This work was carried out in 2022 by the Institut de la Statistique du Québec (ISQ) according to the official provincial geographic base. A metadata sheet shows the process of harmonizing this geography. __The content of the resulting database is detailed there (page 2), as well as the description of the attributes in the appendix (pages 7 to 11) __.

Database of declared agricultural plots and productions (BDPPAD)

The Database of Declared Agricultural Parcels and Productions (BDPPAD) consists of polygons in vector format representing the outline of agricultural plots that have been associated with the files of clients of La Financière Agricole du Québec (FADQ) since 2003. The plots are kept from year to year to constitute a bank of plots covering as much territory as possible, whether the associated customer is active or not. For each insurance year, agricultural production is associated with the plots that active customers declare to cultivate.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

Mapping of station quality indices for monospecific plantations of white spruce, black spruce and jack pine

Station Quality Index (IQS) maps provide a 25-year IQS value for white spruce, black spruce, and jack pine plantations at the scale of the forest polygon of the ecoforest map updated in 2022. These IQS values were estimated with non-parametric models called decision-making tree forests, which were parameterized from spatially explicit variables, derived from climate data, ecological classification, edaphic characteristics and attributes relating to the station. IQS values were estimated based on the current climate period for managed forest land and do not include climate projections. Data can be downloaded as a file in GeoPackage (GPKG) or CSV format. To know the details of the modeling approach used, you are invited to consult the SSRF-30 technical opinion by Barrette et al. (2023).**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

Heritage buildings cited by municipalities and indigenous communities

The Ministry of Culture and Communications makes available some of its data on heritage buildings cited by municipalities and indigenous communities (formerly the historical monuments cited). These elements of real estate heritage are part of the heritage protected under the Cultural Heritage Act (L.R.Q., c. 21) and are registered in the Quebec Cultural Heritage Register.

These elements and all related information can be found in the Répertoire du Patrimoine Culturel du Québec (www.patrimoine-cultur.gouv.qc.ca).

Note that the geographic coordinates associated with the heritage elements represent a point that locates the property on the territory and not their perimeter. This location is indicative and, therefore, has no legal significance. Refer to the Cultural Heritage Register, maintained at the MCC by the Cultural Heritage Registrar, for legal information. It is also possible that some heritage elements do not have geographic coordinates, so they are absent from cartographic representations.

 Purpose: To disseminate and highlight Quebec's cultural heritage.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
