  • Geographic files and documentation: 16-510-X2024003
    Description: This product contains gridded datasets of annual estimates of average normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and green/grey classification.

    "Urban greenness" is a measure that assesses the condition and health of an urban landscape. Vegetation contributes to more livable, beautiful communities by helping to clean the air, moderate the local climate, control water flow and provide habitats for wildlife.

    Annual average normalized difference vegetation index datasets and annual green/grey classifications are available for the years 2000 to 2025 and cover Canada south of 60°N.
    Release date: 2025-11-17

  • Geographic files and documentation: 16-510-X2025006
    Description: This product contains specifications intended for users of the urban greenness geospatial files. This document provides important technical information for users and links to methodology.
    Release date: 2025-11-17

  • Articles and reports: 16-508-X2025002
    Description: This fact sheet presents gross domestic product (GDP) data at the sub-drainage area geography. It outlines the way that natural resources and biophysical features throughout Canada help determine which industries will thrive in various areas across the country. It uses experimental mapped GDP data that shows the relationship between the environment and human activity. This article examines industries such as oil and gas, mining, electricity generation, agriculture, forestry, sight-seeing transportation, and accommodation and restaurants.

  • Articles and reports: 16-001-M2025003
    Description: This technical paper provides an ecosystem accounting framework to assess Canada’s urban ecosystems and the ecosystem services they supply. The ecosystem accounts for large urban areas will measure ecosystem extent, condition and services following the internationally accepted environmental accounting standard. The technical paper will guide the development of urban accounts as part of the Census of Environment and will be used to engage with stakeholders about needs, methods, and uses of new data.

  • Geographic files and documentation: 16-510-X2025003
    Description: This product contains specifications intended for users of the land cover register geospatial files. This document provides important technical information for users and links to methodology.
    Release date: 2025-05-13

  • Geographic files and documentation: 16-510-X2025004
    Description: This product contains specifications intended for users of the Statistical Ecosystem Register grid system reference files. This document provides important technical information for users, including the coordinate reference system, resolution, and file contents and structure. This document also provides additional information about the grid system, reasons for some of the chosen parameters, and intended uses.

  • Table: 16-510-X2025005
    Description: This product contains reference files that define the nested spatial grid system used by the Census of Environment's Statistical Ecosystem Register. The reference grids are available as 11 GeoTIFF files, one for each resolution, as well as a well-known text representation of the projected coordinate reference system (.prj file). The GeoTIFF files contain only placeholder values of 1 (stored as a compressed unsigned 1-bit integer, to minimize the size of the files). These files can be used as templates for integrating data from multiple sources into a single gridded spatial reference system, thus enabling a common approach for related spatial data products.

  • Geographic files and documentation: 16-510-X2025001
    Description: This document describes the methodology used to develop the land cover register, a raster dataset that maps Canada’s terrestrial and freshwater land cover using an 11-class classification system. The data product, with a spatial resolution of 30 metres, represents circa 2020 and was created through the integration of multiple land cover and land use datasets. The dataset and documentation were created by the Census of Environment program and will support Statistics Canada's ecosystem accounting efforts.
    Release date: 2025-03-27

  • Table: 16-510-X2025002
    Description: This product contains a raster dataset that maps Canada’s terrestrial and freshwater extent using an 11-class classification system. It represents land cover circa 2020 and has a 30-metre spatial resolution. The main purpose of the land cover register is to identify land cover and land use assets to support ecosystem accounting. It was created through the integration of multiple land cover and land use datasets.
