This item is included in Data Basin, but has not been added to the CA Offshore Wind Energy.

Description:

The Freshwater Atlas is a standardized dataset for mapping the province’s hydrological features. It represents a significant improvement over the previous 1:50,000 scale Watershed Atlas because it is derived from the province’s more detailed 1:20,000 scale topographic base maps (TRIM). The atlas defines watershed boundaries by height of land and provides a connected network of streams, lakes and wetlands.

This dataset contains the following features:

Streams, tributaries and major rivers, waterbodies.
Waterbodies - lakes, wetlands and glaciers
Coastal bays and inlets

Data were clipped to the GEOS Interior Wetbelt study area.

All waterbody polygon features were merged and rasterized at 30m by Conservation Biology Institute.
