Provincial and Municipal Dikes in ManitobaDikes have been built to prevent flooding of communities and specific areas during runoff and flood events. This layer demonstrates the location of many provincial- and municipal-owned dikes in Manitoba; Elevations have been provided where they are known, and noted as “elevation under review” where they are uncertain. 

The “Thematic Soil Maps of Manitoba” is a revised and condensed version of the Manitoba Detailed Soils Database produced by CANSIS. It contains data relating to the soils slope, drainage, agricultural capability, erosion potential, and surface texture.

Drainage basins of Manitoba.Hydrologic drainage basins found within Manitoba. The Assiniboine River basin is divided to indicate the Shellmouth Reservoir subbasin, to better illustrate local impacts and conditions. Basin names are in English and French. 

Feature layer of the Manitoba provincial boundary.A feature layer of Manitoba's provincial boundaries:Manitoba/Ontario boundary, Manitoba/Saskatchewan boundary, Manitoba/Nunavut boundary, International boundary. Excluding the International Boundary, the graphical data was computed from original boundary survey measurements published in respective official boundary commission reports using least squares adjustment software "Manor". The adjustments were constrained to known NAD83 [nmip94 adj.] federal/provincial boundary marker positions. For the International Boundary, the graphics were created by converting the official published NAD27 marker positions for the boundary into NAD83 using datum conversion software NTv2 and interconnecting the plotted marker positions with straight lines using CARIS map software. The purpose is to provide end users with a digital map of Manitoba's boundaries.  This data layer is suitable for most medium and small scale digital map applications as well as GIS georeferencing in general. This Manitoba provincial boundary was originally published on January 12, 2004. It was uploaded to Manitoba Maps as a feature layer on December 15, 2016. Use Constraints: The Hudson Bay shoreline for this product was taken from 1:500,000 scale digital mapping and is intended for generalized small scale mapping of this portion of the provincial boundary. Estimated accuracy if plus or minus 125m. Fields Included: FID: Sequential unique whole numbers that are automatically generated, AREA: GIS area in square-metres calculated in the NAD83 Universal Transverse Mercator Zone 14 coordinate system, PERIMETER: GIS perimeter in metres calculated in the NAD83 Universal Transverse Mercator Zone 14 coordinate system, NAME: province name

The purpose of this layer is to provide end users with a spatial representation of the Zones in adopted Zoning bylaws and their consolidated amendments in Manitoba. This layer is intended to be a source of data delivery as well as usage in situ.This dataset is comprised of boundary geometry representing the zones in the Zoning bylaws (as defined in The Planning Act) in force and effect within the Province of Manitoba. Spatial referencing of the zones is based on the best available land parcel data for each municipality. Where available, land parcel data based on registered survey plans and ground control coordinates was used. Otherwise, the reference grid maintained by Manitoba Sustainable Development was used. The delineation of the boundaries is set by the bylaw establishing or amending the boundary of each zone. Dataset content is subject to: Ongoing changes in zone boundaries which are determined by amendments to adopted Zoning bylaws or the adoption of new Zoning bylaws. Ongoing development and maintenance of the land parcel datasets. Improvements to the land parcel data are used to improve the positional accuracy of the zone polygons. As of the publication date of this dataset, the following known issues remain: For zone boundaries that include water boundaries, the water boundary that best reflects the intended zone boundary was used. In some instances, road allowances on a municipal boundary are included in both of the adjoining municipalities. Please visit the Manitoba Municipal Relations website for more information at www.gov.mb.ca/mr. The Zoning bylaw data reflects the most current zones at the time of export and was uploaded to Manitoba Maps as a feature layer. Fields Included: OBJECTID: Sequential unique whole numbers that are automatically generated ZBL: Number assigned by municipality to identify a specific bylaw ZBL_A: Number assigned to a bylaw that amends an existing zoning bylaw MUNI_NO: Manitoba municipality identifier number MUNI_NAME: Name of municipality ZONE: Letter code that corresponds with Zone Name as stating in the zoning bylaw ZONE_NAME: Name of Zone as stated in bylaw ZONE_CATEGORY: Zone category as interpreted by Municipal Relations AREA: Area of each polygon expressed in acres PLANNINGREGION: Area of responsibility for a Community and Regional Planning Branch (In the Department of Municipal Relations) office PLANNINGDISTRICT: Name of the Planning District to which the municipality belongs if applicable MUNI_NAME_2014: Name of municipality before 2015 Amalgamations MUNI_NO_2014: Manitoba municipality identifier number before 2015 Amalgamations AMENDMENT_DESCRIPTION: Summary of change by the amending bylaw stating the zone before and after an amendment (e.g. RR to MG)

This polygon dataset was created to provide a record of the designated Provincial Waterways in Manitoba.This database contains lines and polygons showing the locations of provincial waterways, such as drains, diversions, detention basins, floodways, dams and reservoirs. This dataset was created by digitizing high-resolution imagery of the water features and by digitizing the titled Water Control Work plans associated with the features for drains which have been designated as provincial waterways by Order-in-Council.This dataset was created to provide a record of the designated Provincial Waterways in Manitoba and was intended for use in administering Provincial Waterways Authorizations. Provincial Waterways are designated by Order-in-Council and are under the administration and control of Manitoba Infrastructure (MI) through the Water Resource Administration Act.

Manitoba's Provincial Forest Boundaries (version 6): There are currently 15 provincial forests totalling almost 22,000 km2. Attributes include the name of the provincial forest, the year it was established and its area. Detailed descriptions of Manitoba’s provincial forests are provided in the Provincial Forest Act Regulations.Manitoba's Provincial Forest B oundaries ( V ersion 6 ). Manitoba's provincial forests reserve certain areas in the province for perpetual growth of timber, preserve the forest cover thereon and provide for a reasonable use of all the resources that the forest lands contain. All Crown lands within a provincial forest are withdrawn from disposition, sale, settlement or occupancy, except under authority of the Forest Act . Before the Province of Manitoba was established, European settlers were promised 160 acres of free land if they lived on it and cleared it for agriculture. As a result, farms began replacing our southern forests. The federal government decided they must retain some forests for building material. In 1885 , they established Turtle Mountain, Spruce Woods and Riding Mountain (now a national park) as timber reserves. Duck Mountain and Porcupine Mountain followed in 1906. What started out as federal timber reserves 100 years ago have become our provincial forests of today. Manitoba has 15 provincial forests , totalling almost 22,000 sq. km . These forests are among the highest quality timber stands in the province. Today, our provincial forests are much more than reserves for timber. They are also places for wildlife, recreation and research. Control of Manitoba's forests was transferred from the federal to the provincial governments in 1930. Provincial forests are Crown lands owned by the people of Manitoba. The feature class name (BDY_MB_PROV_FOREST_PY) components include: 1. ISO 19115 Topic Category Name (BDY for boundary); 2. Location code (MB for Manitoba); 3. Intuitive or descriptive name (PROV_FOREST); 4. Data/geometry type (PY for polygon); 5.
