The link: Access the data directory is available in the sectionDataset Description Sheets; Additional Information.

The third edition of the [Small forest flora of Quebec (MRNF, 2023) ] (https://boutique.publicationsduquebec.gouv.qc.ca/recherche/Petite%20flore%20foresti%C3%A8re) presents the distribution maps of 298 species of trees, shrubs, herbaceous plants, bryophytes and lichens that grow in Quebec forests. The AIRES_REPARTITION_PFFQ database is the product resulting from the vectorization of each of the distribution areas presented in Little Flora. It thus allows the consultation of these areas in a geographic information system.

The ranges are grouped into a single feature class where the main range of each species is bounded by one or more polygons. The location of isolated populations, located outside the main range of a species, is indicated very generally by circles 30 km in diameter.This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).
