Broad Ecosystem Units were mapped using predictive modeling methods from various data sources (ranging from 1:50,000 to 1:250,000 in scale) and are referenced to the CanVec digital spatial framework (1:50,000). Broad Ecosystem Units (BEU) are a level in the Yukon bioclimate ecosystem classification system that represents areas with similar broad vegetation communities, terrain type (soils and topography) within bioclimate zones. Broad Ecosystem Units are described in the accompanying report "Regional Ecosystems of West-Central Yukon, Part 1: Ecosystem descriptions ".The intended application for mapped broad ecosystem units is 1:100,000 or smaller (1:100,000 - 1:250,000 scale) - interpretations derived from the map products should not be applied at more detailed scales, even though the resultant 30m raster map allows users to view results at more detailed resolutions. With new information, boundaries and designations of Broad Ecosystem Units can change. Updates to Broad Ecosystem Units occur only periodically.

This feature delineates forest and vegetation stands in the Yukon at a scale of 1:5,000. It is an operational level forest inventory (as opposed to a management level). This inventory has been completed in various stages, between 2013 and 2014, and delineation via softcopy from stereo images acquired in the years 2007 and 2012. The aerial images used for the Haines Junction region (Champagne and Aishihik Traditional Territory) had a ground sample distance (GSD) of 40 cm and were collected in both color and infrared. The aerial imagery in the southcentral Yukon were 1:40,000 black and white hard copy images, scanned at 60 microns or approximately 1m GSD.Distributed from [GeoYukon](https://yukon.ca/geoyukon) by the [Government of Yukon](https://yukon.ca/maps) .

Ecosections are areas with minor physiographic and macroclimatic or oceanographic variations. There are 114 ecosections in British Columbia varying from pure marine units to pure terrestrial units. Ecosections are meant to be mapped at small scales (1:250,000) for resource emphasis and area planning

An ecoregion is an area with major physiographic and minor macroclimatic or oceanographic variation. There are 43 ecoregion in British Columbia of which 39 are terrestrial. Ecodivsions are meant to be mapped at 1:500,000 for regional strategic planning

Inventory of building footprints in the City of Rouyn-Noranda.**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 original ecoforest map and the results of the 4th ecoforest inventory of southern Quebec constitute a grouping of ecoforest data including the original ecoforest map of the 4th inventory and numerous other tables providing information directly related to ecoforest populations. The information in this dataset corresponds to the forest profile up to the year of aerial photography. Among the numerous tables and entity classes that the product brings together, the following groups can be distinguished: * The original ecoforest map of the 4th inventory made up of ecoforest polygons. This is the geographic base to which all other data is attached; * The forest compilations of the 4th inventory, which contain, among other things, the gross commercial volumes evaluated by essence; * The ecological classification of Quebec territory; * Data for the characterization of forest stations. __Note that__ the original ecoforest map of the 4th inventory has been complete since 2018 and that no new mapping has been added. This differs from the current original ecoforest map where, each year, a portion of Quebec's territory is photo-interpreted and integrated into the provincial product by replacing the cartographic information from the previous inventory. In addition, some areas have not been mapped since the 3rd inventory and are therefore absent from the original ecoforest map from the 4th inventory.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
