Up-to-date ecoforest map

English: The link: Access the data directory is available in the sectionDataset Description Sheets; Additional Information. The updated ecoforest map (formerly “with disturbances”) is the result of the interpretation of aerial photographs and control points in the field as part of the ecoforest inventory of southern Quebec. This mapping presents the various forest and ecological characteristics of the forest territory and corresponds to the portrait of the forest up to the year in which the aerial photograph was taken (mapping cycle of about 10 years). Next, the outlines and nature of recent disturbances (forest interventions, fires and other disturbances) are then integrated annually. The fifth mapping cycle has been under way since 2015. This map covers almost all of the territory south of the 52nd parallel of Quebec's public and private forest. It is distributed by map sheet at a scale of 1/250,000. The minimum mapping area is 4 ha for stands and 0.1 ha for disturbances. Note 1: The disturbance maps used to update the updated ecoforest map are also distributed separately on Data Quebec. Here is the list of these maps: + [Forest fires] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/feux-de-foret) + [Harvesting and other silvicultural interventions] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/recolte-et-reboisement) + [Epidemics, windfalls and ice storms] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/epidemies-chablis-et-verglas) + [Forest infrastructures] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/infrastructures-en-milieu-forestier) () Note 2: Disturbances are prioritized according to the nature of the layer and respect for the chronology of events. Only the last original or partial disturbance is kept in the updated ecoforest map. You should refer to the annual update layers, listed in Note 1, to have access to the full history of disturbances.This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).
