Flood Map Index
The Flood Hazard Map Index provides awareness of the areas at risk of flooding and support for improved decision making for activities and development in flood prone areas. Scanned, black and white images of New Brunswick Flood Risk Map Sheets.
2015 - (Archived) Flood Susceptibility Index (FSI)
A national map of flood susceptibility or flood prone areas based on patterns of historic flood events as predicted by an ensemble machine learning model. The recommended use is national, provincial or regional scale and can be used as a guide for identifying areas for further investigation. This dataset, while processed and available at 30m cell size, is not recommended for use at the pixel or street level, given the uncertainty in the modelling process and the variability of results as discussed in https: **This third party metadata element follows the Spatio Temporal Asset Catalog (STAC) specification.**

Trends and Extremes - Flood Susceptibility Mapping
This collection of flood susceptibility products captures temporal patterns of historic flood events from 2000 to 2023, derived from flood susceptibility maps. The layers are designed to support decision-making by providing easily interpretable information for planning, screening, and other management purposes.This collection contains several datasets which explore the suite of rasters from 2000 to 2023:- Extreme wet and extreme dry years and the associated average flood susceptibility, processed by NHN WU, as found by Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) analysis- Flood susceptibility envelope, which is derived from the above wet and dry years- Trend slope, for each pixel the value for each year is extracted and the linear trend is computed, greater than 1000 is increasing flood susceptibility and below 1000 is decreasing flood susceptibility. - Trend Class, as identified by wet and dry scores, applied to NHN WU- Current flood susceptibility, which represents the estimated average value of present-day flood susceptibility- Current interquartile range, which provides and indication of the temporal variability of a given pixel under the current regime.This dataset forms part of a broader collection of flood susceptibility datasets, offering related information and analyses. The collection includes an overview page with associated publications, historic susceptibility values, temporal trends, and future projections.- **[Collection - Flood Susceptibility Mapping](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/1074f781-85d3-4c86-86cb-fd1c339197dc)**- **[Historic - Flood Susceptibility Mapping](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/ea1384df-bf4a-4743-97bb-870dc43f8d77)**- **[Future - Flood Susceptibility Mapping](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/c00f95a3-7bab-4d28-b9cc-b30f06b5afd2)**
Database of areas at risk of flooding (BDZI)
Data on flood zones include mapping carried out as part of the mapping program of the Canada-Quebec Convention from 1976 to 2001, the Program for the determination of flood ratings from 2001 to 2004 (PDCC), as well as the mapping carried out after that date by the Centre d'expertise du Québec (CEH) and its various partners.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
Watersheds2020
286 LiDAR derived Watersheds modified for coastal flooding by the Resource Inventory & Modelling Section. There is an increase from the 260 original watersheds to aid in mapping flood scenarios over smaller areas.
Canada Flood Map Inventory (CFM)
The Canada Flood Map inventory shows areas in Canada where a copy of a flood hazard map has been collected by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan). The inventory does not display flood zones or extents, but provides information on how to access these flood hazard maps. Depending on the license and availability status to the public, there may be links for download, along with reference information to the original source and/or data owner. NRCan collaborates with provincial and territorial governments to gather flood hazard maps from provinces, territories, municipalities, and other agencies responsible for flood mapping. The inventory is regularly updated to improve its completeness and accuracy. Disclaimer: The Canada Flood Map (CFM) does not include every flood hazard map in Canada and may be incomplete or contain inaccuracies. It should not be relied upon as the official source of flood mapping information. Furthermore, if a map appears to be missing, this does not necessarily mean that the area has never been mapped. For the official version of a map, updated information, or confirmation of applicable regulations, please contact the local authority responsible for flood mapping.Note: Data and maps in the Inventory can be made available upon request to federal and contributing partners.
Counties of British Columbia - Legally Defined Administrative Areas of BC
The __Counties of British Columbia__ contains areas of land within the Province of British Columbia representing legally defined administrative areas described in the County Boundary Act. The purpose of this division is for the administration of justice. The counties were delineated using provincial base mapping features, following the metes and bounds descriptions in the Letters Patent. A polygon dataset that includes all of the administrative areas currently in the __Administrative Boundaries Management System (ABMS)__ is available [here](https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/legally-defined-administrative-areas-of-bc). A complimentary point dataset that defines the administrative areas is also available [here](https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/legally-defined-administrative-areas-of-bc-boundary-locations). The Legal document which divides the province of British Columbia into counties is available [here](http://www.bclaws.ca/civix/document/id/complete/statreg/96075_01). Other individual datasets are available from the following records: https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/province-of-british-columbia-legally-defined-administrative-areas-of-bc https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/municipalities-legally-defined-administrative-areas-of-bc https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/regional-districts-legally-defined-administrative-areas-of-bc https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/electoral-areas-legally-defined-administrative-areas-of-bc https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/islands-trust-legally-defined-administrative-areas-of-bc https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/local-trust-areas-legally-defined-administrative-areas-of-bc https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/sh-sh-lh-nation-legally-defined-administrative-areas-of-bc
Islands Trust - Legally Defined Administrative Areas of BC
A legally defined __Islands Trust__ polygon was drawn from metes and bounds descriptions as written in Letters Patent for the Islands Trust in the province of British Columbia. A polygon dataset that includes all of the administrative areas currently in the __Administrative Boundaries Management System (ABMS)__ is available [here](https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/legally-defined-administrative-areas-of-bc). A complimentary point dataset that defines the administrative areas is also available available [here](https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/legally-defined-administrative-areas-of-bc-boundary-locations).
