Technical and Financial Activity Report (RATF): Québec Forest Work Verification Data

Annual reports from forest work holders submitted to the Québec Minister include several geometric entities for verifying development on public forest territory. The data, provided by the Government and Municipalities of Québec, covers elements like forest roads, drainage works, and reforested species. It was last updated on 2026-04-22 and is licensed under CC-BY-4.0.

Use Cases

• Mapping forest infrastructure development based on reported forest roads and point infrastructure.
• Analyzing reforestation outcomes based on reported reforested species polygons.
• Monitoring environmental intervention impacts based on reported intervention polygons and sampling units.
• Verifying compliance of drainage works based on reported completed drainage geometries.

Strengths

• Includes multiple geometric entity types (e.g., roads, polygons, points) for spatial verification.
• Data is sourced from an authoritative government body (Government and Municipalities of Québec).
• Has a clear update timestamp (2026-04-22 18:01:49.405634).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
