Dataset created to facilitate analysis of areas undergoing anthropogenic disturbance throughout Canada. The dataset combines roads, mines and reservoirs across Canada. Furthermore all anthropogenic featues across Canada which are visible on Landsat imagery (at 28.5m resolution) are included. Examples of these features include linear features such as pipelines, powerlines an seismic lines, and polygon features may include areas distgrubed due to forest harvesting, oil/gas wells and conversion to agricultural/settlement areas. The description of the anthropgenic change feature is not identified in the dataset.
