South Western Ontario Orthophotography Project (SWOOP) imagery was acquired in the spring of 2020 under the best conditions possible to achieve cloud free, snow free, ice free, smoke free, and leaf off captures. The orthophotography has a pixel resolution of 16cm and is accurate to 45 centimetres on the ground at 95%. The imagery was acquired by an Vexcel UltraCam X and Vexcel UltraCam X Prime digital cameras and was later orthorectified using an elevation dataset generated through image correlation.

Imagery was captured from March 7th to May 20th, 2020. The project encompassed an area of approximately 44,828 square kilometers covering South Western Ontario, including Windsor, London, Hamilton, Niagara, Owen Sound, the Bruce Peninsula and surrounding areas. This aerial project is part of a five-year plan (2018-2022) to acquire 16 cm resolution, leaf-off imagery across the province.

Orthoimagery are available in 1km by 1km coverage tiles. (Stereo data is also available through Land Information Ontario.)

Compressed GeoTIFFs: These images are JPEG-compressed GeoTIFFs, and are suitable for analysis in many cases. Should you require uncompressed TIFF files, these may be requested for download by contacting geoportal@scholarsportal.info, and providing your name and institution (ex. University of Guelph).

Please note: Due to the size of these tiles (~500 MB each), please request a portion of the data only. This can be done by including a polygon file of the study area, a description of a desired feature/area (ex. UTM campus), or a screenshot in your e-mail.

This topographic map index is a finding aid for Ontario sheets of the 1:50,000 series of the National Topographic System (NTS) Historical Topographic Maps of Canada. Production on this series began in 1950 and continues today. This digitized collection includes over 2700 individual topographic map sheets for the Province of Ontario produced between 1950 and 2011. Maps cover mostly populated and border regions, and show both natural and man-made features such as relief, spot heights, administrative boundaries, secondary and side roads, railways, trails, wooded areas, waterways including lakes, rivers, streams and rapids, bridges, buildings, mills, power lines, terrain, and land formations.

Once this index is added to the map, clicking on the index tiles will indicate the topographic map coverage. This allows early topographic maps to be found based on regions of interest. When a tile is selected, this search box will populate with all relevant maps that include coverage of the selected area, in chronological order. Maps can then be viewed on the map sheet, downloaded, or explained in greater detail.

This topographic map index is a finding aid for Ontario sheets of the 1:63,360 series of Historical Topographic Maps of Canada. This series was produced between 1906 and 1953, and includes nearly 500 individual topographic map sheets for the Province of Ontario. Maps cover mostly populated and border regions, and show both natural and man-made features such as relief, spot heights, administrative boundaries, roads, railways, trails, waterways, bridges, buildings, mills, power lines, terrain, and land formations.

This dataset was deposited by Sky Analytics Inc. A live drone demo in collaboration with the Daniels Faculty was conducted in May 2021. The objective of the demo was to provide insight as to how drones with various payload configurations can be valuable spatial data collection tools for localized sites. An accompanying video is available on YouTube, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmBjgnOvxOA&t=124s The dataset is comprised of two data files. One is a mobile scan captured by a vehicle mounted with a LIDAR system and a UAV Calibrated file that is a classified point cloud dataset capture with a drone-mounted system.

SCOOP digital imagery was collected with sensor Leica geosystems ADS80 SH82 for areas of Ontario between April 26th and May 7th 2013.

The project encompassed an area of approximately 35,762 square kilometers, covering parts of South Central Ontario including Peterborough, Haliburton, Muskoka, Simcoe and surrounding areas.

A Leica ADS80 SH82 Digital Camera system including an inertial measuring unit (IMU) and a dual frequency airborne GPS receiver was used for the digital image acquisition. Imagery acquisition was performed at 1,920m AMT (above mean terrain) to produce 20cm GSD RGBNiR orthorectified imagery and related products. Ground control survey was also collected by Fugro.

Orthoimagery are available in 1km by 1km coverage tiles in JPG2000 and TIFF image file format.

This shapefile represents the boundaries developed for use when aggregating and reporting cases during the COVID-19 pandemic. Boundaries are a mutually exclusive and exhaustive classification of the land area, meaning that they do not overlap with one another (mutually exclusive) and cover all land area in Canada (exhaustive).

Data was built by Prof. Jack Lucas the the University of Calgary, using the Federal data shapefiles, as well as files from the Provinces of British Columbia, Saskatchewan, and Nova Scotia. In some cases, existing regional health areas were used; in others, areas were developed specificially for COVID-19 reporting.
