Get data on the results of a community led planning process to sustain the natural environment for the Kawartha Lakes region.

This dataset represents the results of a community led planning process to sustain the natural environment across the landscape. A collaborative team of individuals representing governments, stewardship councils, conservation organizations, local industry, private landowners and First Nation communities worked together to identify and map natural heritage features and the connections between them. The data package includes:

• spatial data
• project reports
• presentation materials

The data has been made available to inform and support:

• land use planning
• resource management
• stewardship and restoration projects
• priorities for conservation land acquisitions
• priorities for inventory programs and research

Many Ontario lidar point cloud datasets have been made available for direct download by the Government of Canada through the federal Open Government Portal under the LiDAR Point Clouds – CanElevation Series record. Instructions for bulk data download are available in the Download Instructions document linked from that page. To download individual tiles, zoom in on the map in GeoHub and click a tile for a pop-up containing a download link. See the LIO Support - Large Data Ordering Instructions to obtain a copy of data for projects that are not yet available for direct download. Data can be requested by project area or a set of tiles. To determine which project contains your area of interest or to view single tiles, zoom in on the map above and click. For bulk tile orders follow the link in the Additional Documentation section below to download the tile index. Data sizes by project area are listed below. The Ontario Point Cloud (Lidar-Derived) consists of points containing elevation and intensity information derived from returns collected by an airborne topographic lidar sensor. The minimum point cloud classes are Unclassified, Ground, Water, High and Low Noise. The data is structured into non-overlapping 1-km by 1-km tiles in LAZ format. This dataset is a compilation of lidar data from multiple acquisition projects, as such specifications, parameters, accuracy and sensors vary by project. Some projects have additional classes, such as vegetation and buildings. See the detailed User Guide and contractor metadata reports linked below for additional information, including information about interpreting the index for placement of data orders. Raster derivatives have been created from the point clouds. These products may meet your needs and are available for direct download. For a representation of bare earth, see the Ontario Digital Terrain Model (Lidar-Derived). For a model representing all surface features, see the Ontario Digital Surface Model (Lidar-Derived). You can monitor the availability and status of lidar projects on the Ontario Lidar Coverage map on the Ontario Elevation Mapping Program hub page.

Zoom in on the map above and click your area of interest to determine which package(s) you require for download.

A three-dimensional raster data set which represents a continuous elevation surface. This data set encompasses the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and the surrounding area from Niagara to Lake Simcoe and the Kawartha Highlands to Port Hope. The Digital Elevation Model (DEM) data is organized into 20km x 20km tiles with a spatial resolution of 5m.

This data is intended to be used for pre-engineering survey and design as well as the production of planimetric mapping at differing accuracies.

This data is intended for GIS and remote sensing application that require a high resolution, high accuracy elevation model.

The source data for the GTA 2002 DEM can be found in the Ontario Mass Points and Breaklines.
