Metadata NAP : more info

Identification

Abstract

This series of maps shows the vulnerability of some of the 30 major aquifers in Canada. Carried out by the compilation of several data sources, these maps have different views on the vulnerability of an aquifer to another. There was thus no systematic representation of vulnerability throughout this map collection. The data sources used to determine the vulnerability is usually listed in each map's legend.
