Saint Lawrence Wetlands

The Saint-Lawrence Wetlands Mapping Project is a multi-year project that mapped portions of shores of the St-Lawrence river. The 64 landuse categories, including wetland classes were mapped using remote-sensed imagery from 1990/1991, 1996/97, 2000, and 2002. The data and associated reports are published by Environment Canada's Saint-Lawrence Centre.

Example of the dataset in ArcGIS. Area: Boucherville 1996
