Zoom in on the map above and click your area of interest or use the Tile Index linked below to determine which package(s) you require for download. The DSM data is available in the form of 1-km by 1-km non-overlapping tiles grouped into packages for download.This dataset is a compilation of lidar data from multiple acquisition projects, as such specifications, parameters and sensors may vary by project. See the detailed User Guide linked below for additional information.
You can monitor the availability and status of lidar projects on the Ontario Lidar Coverage map on the Ontario Elevation Mapping Program hub page.
Now also available through a web service which exposes the data for visualization, geoprocessing and limited download. The service is best accessed through the ArcGIS REST API, either directly or by setting up an ArcGIS server connectionusing the REST endpoint URL. The service draws using the Web Mercator projection.
For more information on what functionality is available and how to work with the service, read the Ontario Web Raster Services User Guide. If you have questions about how to use the service, email Geospatial Ontario (GEO) at geospatial@ontario.ca.

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.
