Quebec Private Forestry Management Service Territories

Forestry group data from the Government of Quebec provides a polygonal layer of territories served by accredited forest groups. These groups deliver the Private Forest Development Assistance Program (PAMVFP) by offering management services to forest producers. The dataset is available in multiple geospatial and document formats including SHP, GPKG, and PDF.

Use Cases

• Map and analyze the spatial coverage of polygonal service territories for regional forest management planning.
• Identify gaps in service coverage by analyzing the polygonal layer to support program (PAMVFP) expansion.
• Cross-reference polygonal territory data with other land-use datasets for integrated resource management.

Strengths

• Data is provided in multiple standard geospatial formats including SHP, GPKG, and FGDB/GDB.
• Maintained by the authoritative Government and Municipalities of Québec organization.
• Recently updated, with a last recorded update in March 2026.

Limitations

• No quantitative details on dataset size, row count, or column structure are provided.
• The description and metadata were processed with an automated translation tool, which may introduce ambiguity.
• The dataset's specific temporal and geographic coverage within Quebec is not detailed.
