How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

  • Protected land. Protected here means in CPCAD, Canada’s official list: parks, reserves, wildlife areas and other conserved land, measured within 10 km of the town’s edge.
  • Walking routes. A route counts when 300 m or more of it lies within 2 km of the town. Coverage of trails on OpenStreetMap varies by region.
  • National and provincial parks. The nearest national park and the nearest provincial park are always shown when they are within 100 km.
  • Private land. Private conservation land is in the totals, not the lists. Many such areas are easements on working farms or woodlots.
