Geographic Information System (GIS) data with the following mapping layers from the Greenbelt Plan:

• outer boundaries
• protected countryside and urban river valley designations
• specialty crop areas (Niagara tender fruit, grape area and Holland Marsh)
• settlement areas (towns, villages and hamlets)
• river valley connections.

The data also contains associated policy designation mapping.

This layer was built to show the component parts of the Greenbelt Area as set out in Ontario Regulation 59/05, as amended. ROP Consolidation September 3, 2024.The Greenbelt designations are areas that have Provincial plans and/or specific policies associated with them.There are currently four designations;1) Niagara Escarpment Plan2) Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan3) Protected Countryside; and4) Urban River Valley.

This is a point dataset representing City of Boise Greenbelt map locations. A Greenbelt map is a sign along the Boise River that shows a map of the user's location relative to the system. The Greenbelt is a 25-mile pathway system, primarily along the Boise River. The Greenbelt has map signage along its length that is intended to both guide and orient visitors during use. The data was created by the City of Boise. The data is updated as needed. It is current to the date of publication. For more information about the Boise Greenbelt please visit City of Boise Parks & Recreation.

These ESRI shape files are of National Park Service tract and boundary data that was created by the Land Resources Division. Tracts are numbered and created by the regional cartographic staff at the Land Resources Program Centers and are associated to the Land Status Maps. This data should be used to display properties that NPS owns and properties that NPS may have some type of interest such as scenic easements or right of ways.

Boundaries of all designated Green Belts in and around the City of Edinburgh. These boundaries come from the Edinburgh Local Development Plan.

General information on the location of towns and villages (settlement areas) in the countryside areas protected by Greenbelt plan. For precise boundaries and locations of settlement areas, the appropriate municipality should be consulted.

Summary for Local Authorities: Green Belt Policy in ScotlandPolicy Framework:Green belts are designated in National Planning Framework 4 (NPF4) to manage urban expansion, support regeneration, and protect settlement identity.Local Development Plans (LDPs) determine where green belts are necessary and define their boundaries.Key Purposes of Green Belts:Direct Development – Encourage sustainable growth in suitable areas.Protect Settlement Character – Maintain the landscape and identity of towns and cities.Enhance Access to Open Space – Support public amenity and environmental benefits.Development Restrictions & Exceptions:Generally, development is not permitted in green belts.Exceptions include: Agriculture, forestry, and horticulture. Essential housing for key rural workers. Outdoor recreation, tourism, and leisure activities. Infrastructure (where essential) and cemeteries. Developments must demonstrate necessity, minimise impact, and align with green belt purposes.

Green Belt - The functions of the Green Belt are to: check the unrestricted sprawl of large built-up areas; prevent neighbouring towns from merging into one another; assist in safeguarding the countryside from encroachment; preserve the setting and special character of historic towns; and assist in urban regeneration, by encouraging the recycling of derelict and other urban land.

Green Belt boundary from the 2019 Adopted Local Development Plan

This dataset shows the boundaries of systems of natural heritage features and areas, lands and waters that support connectivity and have significant ecological value. It includes areas defined in provincial plans such as the: * Greenbelt Plan * Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan * Niagara Escarpment Plan * Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe This dataset does not include modifications to systems made by municipal governments as part of their official plans.

Systems of natural core areas and key natural corridors or linkages, such as rivers and woodlands, with significant ecological value for use in land use planning.

This map was created by the GLA in 2017 as a preliminary analysis of the potential for woodland creation in London’s Green Belt, which covers 35,000 hectares. The map shows land in London’s Green Belt which could have potential for woodland creation, described as, ‘plantable areas’, based on an assessment of land use data.

Schedule “A” indicates the General Land Use Designations committing the use of land. These land uses include areas designated as Residential, Retail, Office, Business Corridor, Industrial, Institutional, Open Space. The map also shows areas, such as the Provincial Greenbelt Area/Protected Countryside, Central Area, North West Brampton Urban Development Area, Special Land Use Policy Area, Special Study Area, Corridor Protection Area, Parkway Belt West, the L.B.P.I.A. Operating Area, Deferral Area and the Provincial Highways.

This map contains information about closures and detours for the Boise Greenbelt urban trail system. The 25-mile Boise River Greenbelt is one of Boise's most beloved parks. The tree-lined pathway follows the river through the heart of the city and provides scenic views, wildlife habitat and pedestrian access to many of the city's popular riverside parks. The Greenbelt also serves as an alternative transportation route for commuters.For more information, please visit City of Boise Parks and Recreation.
