Description
Consented Rights Territories (TDC) from the Québec Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests (MRNF) delineate areas where wood volume assignments and forest management rights are granted. The dataset includes territories for supply guarantees, harvesting permits, biomass use, delegation agreements, education forests, and Indigenous lands under specific agreements. Data originates from the official MRNF STF and SYMPA systems, with formats including SHP, GPKG, and CSV.
Use Cases
Map territories by granted rights type (e.g., Guarantees of supply (GA), PRAU, CGT) for spatial analysis of forest management activities.
Analyze the relationship between territory numbers (NO_TERRI) and active rights beneficiaries from the linked STF_beneficiaries table.
Identify forest management frameworks on Category 1 (TC1) lands dedicated to Indigenous nations under the James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement.
Strengths
Sourced from the official MRNF STF system for geographic information and the SYMPA system for active granted rights.
Covers multiple specific legal frameworks including Guarantees of supply, PRAU, PRBIO, EDs, FER, STF, CGT, and TC1 lands.
Available in multiple geospatial and tabular formats including SHP, GPKG, FGDB/GDB, and CSV.
Limitations
Sample data and specific column definitions are unavailable, complicating initial data exploration.
Row count, size, and temporal coverage are unknown, limiting assessment of dataset scale and currency.
Data for residual forest territories with CGT agreements and TC1 lands does not originate from the primary official STF system.
