| Description : |
The Canada Land Inventory is a comprehensive multi-disciplinary land inventory of rural Canada, covering over 2.5 million square kilometers of land and water. This digital dataset includes land capability for agriculture, forestry, wildlife, recreation, wildlife (ungulates and waterfowl). Over 1000 mapsheets are available on this site for direct download. The mapping of land capability for waterfowl uses a national system developed with the aid of the Canadian Wildlife Service. This sector uses seven classes, like the others. Capability for waterfowl production requires a sufficient quantity and quality of food, protective cover, and space to meet the needs for survival, growth, and reproduction. |
