__Update: The data released by the Directorate of Forest Inventories from 2021 to 2024 (DIF) has been replaced by data produced by the Directorate of Forest Protection from 2025.The link: *Access the data directory* is available in the section*Dataset Description Sheets; Additional Information*__.In 2025, the Forest Protection Directorate of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests (MRNF) began producing data that indicate the strength of forest vegetation. To produce the NBR index, the SGRF uses data provided by the Landsat (NASA) and Sentinel-2 (European Space Agency) satellites combined in the integrated satellite product “Harmonized Landsat and Sentinel-2 surface reflectance data set” designed by NASA. These satellite sensors measure light at specific frequencies called spectral bands. The light visible to human eyes corresponds to the red, blue, and green spectral bands as captured by a standard camera or camera. In addition, these satellite sensors offer the advantage of measuring infrared frequencies that are invisible to the human eye, which broadens the possibilities of observing natural phenomena under different characteristics.During the passage of a satellite over Quebec, only a part of Quebec is measured. The waves measured by Landsat and Sentinel-2 are blocked by clouds or by heavy air pollution such as forest fire smoke. Thus, to obtain a complete portrait of the Quebec forest for a given season, it is necessary to combine acquisitions from several different dates. The acquisition period for SGRF products extends from July 15 to September 15. This is a period that optimizes the observation of damage caused by spruce budworm.The products are delivered in the “Québec Lambert” coordinate reference system (EPSG: 32198). In addition, to keep only observations on forest territories, a mask was applied using the “CO_TER = Null” attribute from Quebec's ecoforest mapping as well as a mask to remove forest roads and paths. Because of this product, the DPF also produces DNBr images, pre-epidemic DNBr images, and time series (2014 to present). All documentation can be found in the lisez-moi.pdf file in the “Documentation” section.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

__The link: *Access the data directory* is available in the section*Dataset Description Sheets; Additional Information*__.The mapping of **insect epidemics, shelters** (trees knocked down by the wind) ** and icecry** is produced as part of the ecoforestry inventory of southern Quebec in order to maintain an up-to-date portrait of the forest. It covers the commercial territory of public and private forests in Quebec. The minimum mapping area is 0.1 ha. This portrait is useful, among other things, for evaluating the intensity and extent of damage associated with insects, windfalls and ice. In each case, the mapping represents the loss of forest cover in the form of disturbances ranging from severe (over 75% of dead trees) to slight disturbances (from 25 to 75% of dead trees). The disturbances in this map date back to the beginning of the century (when information is available) to the present day. They are the result of collaboration between the Directorate of Forest Protection and the Directorate of Forest Inventories. The outlines come from forest inventories (first and second decennial inventories) and ecoforestry inventories (third and fourth decennial inventories). Mortality is dated using defoliation layers from the Directorate for Forest Protection. For the epidemic of TBE (spruce budworm), mortality is considered to occur after a succession of five years or more of severe or moderate defoliation. In the case of the surveyor, a single year is enough to decimate a forest stand. The other elements in the layer are dated using LANDSAT imagery, sample plots, and archival documents.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

Forest stands (FSTAND) is a vector delineation of relatively homogeneous forest stands or naturally non-forested areas as polygons with a 0.5 ha minimum area and a 2.0 ha median area.Download: Here The Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment, Forest Service Branch, has developed a forest resource inventory (FRI) which meets a variety of strategic and operational planning information needs for the boreal plains. Such needs include information on the general land cover, terrain, and growing stock (height, diameter, basal area, timber volume and stem density) within the provincial forest and adjacent forest fringe. This inventory provides spatially explicit information as 10 m or 20 m raster grids and as vectors polygons for relatively homogeneous forest stands or naturally non-forested areas with a 0.5 ha minimum area and a 2.0 ha median area.

The Fibre Recovery Zones (FRZ) define areas where increased waste rates may apply to avoidable waste left on a cutting authority as detailed in the Provincial Logging Residue and Waste Measurement Procedure Manual. The boundaries have been approved by the Director of the Forest Tenures Branch, Ministry of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development. Current extent of the data is for the Coast Fibre Recovery Zones only.

Points with rotations that indicate downstream flow direction. Can be displayed with arrow symbols to show flow direction. There is one point at the upstream end for each stream network feature

This feature delineates forest and vegetation stands in the Yukon at a scale of 1: 40 ,000. It is a management level forest inventory (as opposed to a n operational level) - meaning that analysis and mapping are most effective close to the 1:40,000 scale and not larger . This inventory has been completed in various stages : delineation from hardcopy black and white photographs took place from 1987 to 2002; while recent data collection has proceeded through a digital (aka 'softcopy') methodology of scanned photographs and digital elevation models.Distributed from [GeoYukon](https://yukon.ca/geoyukon) by the [Government of Yukon](https://yukon.ca/maps) .
