Description

The Historical Municipal Landfills dataset is a spatial representation of the locations of historic landfills in the province of Alberta. The data was originally captured in a 1982 survey conducted by MacLaren Plansearch Lavalin where counties within Alberta were asked to identify the quarter section that landfills were located in. MacLaren ranked the results of the survey categorizing landfill locations based on their potential risk for environmental and human health impacts. In 1985 Associated Engineering did an evaluation of a selection of sites which MacLaren had ranked as having the greatest potential risk and identified them on hardcopy aerial photographs. A subset of the remaining landfills in the MacLaren report were located on historic aerial photographs as part of an Alberta Environment and Protected Areas project where the footprint of the landfill was digitized. These three sources were used in the creation of this dataset: MacLaren Plansearch report. Associated...

Description

Lists the percentage of hours for each year at a given air quality level, by municipality. The Air Quality Health Index is calculated based on the relative risks of a combination of common air pollutants that is known to harm human health. These pollutants are: ozone (O3) at ground level, particulate matter (PM2.5/PM10), and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). Risks are defined as follows: 1-3 High Quality; 4-6 Moderate Quality; 7-9 Low Quality; 10+ Very Low Quality.

Description

Mountain Goat and Sheep Ranges were determined from both observations (telemetry and aerial sheep/goat surveys) and habitat suitability indexes. Goat and sheep ranges have been buffered by 800m to derive zones. Range delineation encompasses use during all seasons.To identify goat and sheep ranges in an effort to: a) avoid land use disturbances that may have a direct or indirect adverse effect on the behavior of the animals, and b) avoid permanent alteration of physical habitat conditions. An area south of Grande Prairie was added to the layer in November 2022.
