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.

The dataset titled "Greenbelt Plan mapping" falls under the domain of Economy and was published on January 11, 2020. It is owned by the Government of Ontario and the contact point for access is the same government body, specifically the Municipal Affairs and Housing department. The dataset is categorized under several tags including Economics and Industry, Economy and Business, Environment and energy, Government information, Housing Communities and Social Support, Housing Potential, and Infrastructure and Transportation. The dataset's owning organization within the CUDC is also the Government of Ontario. The dataset provides Geographic Information System (GIS) data with various mapping layers from the Greenbelt Plan. These layers include 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), and river valley connections. The dataset also includes associated policy designation mapping. The source of the dataset is provided and it is licensed under the Open Government Licence – Ontario. The resources available in the dataset are Shapefiles. The metadata for this dataset was created on October 1, 2024, and was last modified on April 8, 2025.

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.

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.

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.

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

There are currently four designations:

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.

The agricultural land base for the Greater Golden Horseshoe is comprised of prime agricultural areas, including specialty crop areas, and rural lands that together create a continuous, productive land base for agriculture. The Province has issued the agricultural land base map as enabled by the Greenbelt Plan, 2017; the Growth Plan, 2017; the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan, 2017; and the Niagara Escarpment Plan, 2017. The agricultural land base mapping is to be used in conjunction with the Agricultural System policies in provincial plans, Implementation Procedures for the Agricultural System in the Greater Golden Horseshoe, and the Agricultural System Portal as a framework to protect farmland, while supporting the viability of the agri-food sector.

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.

A council development plan may designate a green belt around a city or town to support the spatial strategy by: - directing development to the most appropriate locations and supporting regeneration; - protecting and enhancing the character, landscape setting and identity of the settlement; and - protecting and providing access to open space. This dataset has been developed as a polygon layer.

To provide the data required to recreate York Region Official Plan – 2022 Map 1C - "Provincial ORM Plan and Greenbelt Plan Designations"The data layers do not take the place of a legal survey or other primary source documentation and may not be used to determine, certify, or verify if a parcel is a qualifying or exempt property.

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.

City Development Plan Policy CDP 10 - Greenbelt Release for Housing. This is areas identified in the greenbelt which are to be masterplanned for housing. Until such times as masterplans are prepared and development started, the areas shall remain as Green Belt, so are not Housing Sites. They were consulted on in Summer 2014.
