This dataset was created to:

better understand the state of the shoreline track changes over time identify priority areas for restoration The dataset provides important information for fish and wildlife habitat assessments. This includes identification of significant fish and wildlife areas and habitats like wetlands, woodlands, spawning habitat and biological productive areas.

The dataset contains 2 spatial files:

a vector linear layer representing shoreline reaches another vector polygon layer capturing shoreline and near-shore structures

Natural cover includes areas that have been mapped as woodlands (including plantations and hedgerows), wetlands and other rare vegetative cover communities. Data here represent areas outlined in the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan Policy 6.48 (June 2011). This product requires the use of GIS software. *[GIS]: geographic information system

Natural areas abutting Lake Simcoe are areas of a continuous vegetation community class that have a minimum size of 1 ha and are wholly or partially within the 30 m buffer zone of the Lake Simcoe shoreline. These areas may be a narrow band of vegetation along the shoreline or larger areas, which extend a greater distance from the shoreline. As described in policy 6.31-SA, the MNR and the MOE will map the location of natural areas abutting Lake Simcoe.

The Lake Simcoe Watershed land use layer was created as an update to the LSRCA to produce a seamless cover for the watershed depicting current land cover using the best available data. The polygons are interpreted using orthophotography and assigned a land use code, natural heritage land uses are then further attributed based on the Ecological Land Classification (ELC).

Oblique aerial imagery was acquired by Taiga Air Services Ltd. in late fall 2014, from Nov. 16th to December 2nd, for the main shoreline of Lake Simcoe and four of its islands (Georgina, Thorah, Fox and Snake). Collection was made by a helicopter flying 160 metres from shore and 100 metres above the water. Overlapping oblique images are available in TIF (120 Mb) and JPG (3.5 Mb) format. A photo centre point shapefile is also available that can be used to link to the images from GIS software.

Several partners were involved with the project, including: Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, Environment Canada, Ontario Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change, Severn Sound Environmental Association, Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority, Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority, and County of Simcoe.

Imagery available as one packaged product for Lake Simcoe shoreline. Requestor will need to follow the ordering instructions and mail an external hard drive to LIO to receive the data.

This data shows the regional boundary which indicates the jurisdiction between York Region and neighbouring regions. The municipal boundaries define the limits of the Region's nine area municipalities: Aurora, East Gwillimbury, Georgina, King, Markham, Newmarket, Richmond Hill, Whitchurch-Stouffville and Vaughan. In 2007 an extensive investigation and clean-up of the municipal boundary locations was completed which included: snapping the boundaries to the road centrelines (which were spatially adjusted to the orthophotography in 2005); recalculating the boundary along Highway 404 to follow the 150 feet west of the centre line of the highway as outlined in the 1970 Regional Municipality of York Act; spatially adjusting the boundary along the Holland River to coincide with the centre of the river as illustrated in the 2005 orthophotography; spatially adjusting the boundary along Lake Simcoe according to the recent corrections completed by the Lake Simcoe Regional Conservation Authority according to the 2002 orthophotography; and several areas often questioned by users of the municipal boundary data were clarified in cooperation with the local municipalities.
