Elevation - Elevation derived product. For example such as Canvec Contours, NWT NTDB Contours, Spot Elevations and MVAP Contours

Elevation Features entities are: Contour and Elevation Point. CanVec is a digital cartographic reference product of Natural Resources Canada (NRCan). It originates from the best available data sources covering Canadian territory, offers quality topographical information in vector format, and complies with international geomatics standards. CanVec is a multi-source product coming mainly from the National Topographic Data Base (NTDB), the Mapping the North process conducted by the Canada Center for Mapping and Earth Observation (CCMEO), the Atlas of Canada data, the GeoBase initiative, and the data update using satellite imagery coverage (e.g. Landsat 7, Spot, Radarsat, etc.).Distributed from [GeoYukon](https://yukon.ca/geoyukon) by the [Government of Yukon](https://yukon.ca/maps) .

Level curves with an equidistance of 1 m derived from a lidar survey conducted in 2024.attributes:ID - Unique IDSubtype - Master (1) or secondary (2) level curve SCORE - Elevation value (m) The High Resolution Digital Elevation Model (m) product The High Resolution Digital Elevation Model (HRDM) product is available on the Open Government website.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

A spot height identifies the elevation (z value) above sea level of natural and man-made geographic features. It includes: * spot heights * vertical control points * water level/lake elevations This product requires the use of geographic information system (GIS) software.

This dataset contain the 1:20 000 scale spot height elevation text converted from the Provincial Digital Base Mapping Project. Currently, no spot height information exists for Banff, Jasper and Wood Buffalo National Parks and also for the extreme north east portion of the province. See the Completeness Report in this metadata record for details regarding coverage.

Level below which soil or rock is saturated with water, in the well and at the time the level has been measured, expressed in m above the sea level. Groundwater depth is measured on the field, using a water level meters. The depth is then subtracted from the elevation of the measurement site to obtain the water level elevation. The dataset is a general description of the measurement site including location and well elevation. It features a series of points of the surface elevation of the groundwater body.

The High Resolution Digital Elevation Model Mosaic provides a unique and continuous representation of the high resolution elevation data available across the country. The High Resolution Digital Elevation Model (HRDEM) product used is derived from airborne LiDAR data (mainly in the south) and satellite images in the north. The mosaic is available for both the Digital Terrain Model (DTM) and the Digital Surface Model (DSM) from web mapping services. It is part of the CanElevation Series created to support the National Elevation Data Strategy implemented by NRCan. This strategy aims to increase Canada's coverage of high-resolution elevation data and increase the accessibility of the products.Unlike the HRDEM product in the same series, which is distributed by acquisition project without integration between projects, the mosaic is created to provide a single, continuous representation of strategy data. The most recent datasets for a given territory are used to generate the mosaic. This mosaic is disseminated through the Data Cube Platform, implemented by NRCan using geospatial big data management technologies. These technologies enable the rapid and efficient visualization of high-resolution geospatial data and allow for the rapid generation of dynamically derived products. The mosaic is available from Web Map Services (WMS), Web Coverage Services (WCS) and SpatioTemporal Asset Catalog (STAC) collections. Accessible data includes the Digital Terrain Model (DTM), the Digital Surface Model (DSM) and derived products such as shaded relief and slope.The mosaic is referenced to the Canadian Height Reference System 2013 (CGVD2013) which is the reference standard for orthometric heights across Canada.Source data for HRDEM datasets used to create the mosaic is acquired through multiple projects with different partners.Collaboration is a key factor to the success of the National Elevation Strategy. Refer to the “Supporting Document” section to access the list of the different partners including links to their respective data.

CanVec contains more than 60 topographic features classes organized into 8 themes: Transport Features, Administrative Features, Hydro Features, Land Features, Manmade Features, Elevation Features, Resource Management Features and Toponymic Features.This multiscale product originates from the best available geospatial data sources covering Canadian territory. It offers quality topographic information in vector format complying with international geomatics standards.CanVec can be used in Web Map Services (WMS) and geographic information systems (GIS) applications and used to produce thematic maps. Because of its many attributes, CanVec allows for extensive spatial analysis.Related Products (Open Maps Links):**[Constructions and Land Use in Canada - CanVec Series - Manmade Features](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/fd4369a4-21fe-4070-914a-067474da0fd6)****[Lakes, Rivers and Glaciers in Canada - CanVec Series - Hydrographic Features](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/9d96e8c9-22fe-4ad2-b5e8-94a6991b744b)****[Administrative Boundaries in Canada - CanVec Series - Administrative Features](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/306e5004-534b-4110-9feb-58e3a5c3fd97)****[Mines, Energy and Communication Networks in Canada - CanVec Series - Resources Management Features](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/92dbea79-f644-4a62-b25e-8eb993ca0264)****[Wooded Areas, Saturated Soils and Landscape in Canada - CanVec Series - Land Features](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/80aa8ec6-4947-48de-bc9c-7d09d48b4cad)****[Transport Networks in Canada - CanVec Series - Transport Features](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/2dac78ba-8543-48a6-8f07-faeef56f9895)****[Elevation in Canada - CanVec Series - Elevation Features](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/64aad38d-f692-4ab6-bf2c-f938586c1249)****[Map Labels - CanVec Series - Toponymic Features](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/b3fdcd34-4533-415f-8f83-68f17f9d5d68)**

[ARCHIVED] This dataset has been archived as it is no longer able to be provided in this manner. For a more current version of this elevation dataset, please refer to https://nsgi.novascotia.ca/datalocator/elevation/ to access the current catalogue of available elevation products. The Nova Scotia Elevation Dataset, consisting of a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) derived from LiDAR data is available for select 1:2000 scale map sheet windows covering the Town of Hantsport. The DEM is a bare earth rasterized elevation model with a one metre cell size. The area collected is a total of six 1:2000 scale map sheet windows for a total coverage of approximately 17 square kilometres.
