This hypsometric layer represents the relief of Quebec territory at a scale of 1/20,000. Level curves are taken from [topographic maps on a scale of 1/20,000] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/fr/dataset/cartes-topographiques-a-l-echelle-de-1-20-000) . They are generally at an equidistance of ten meters and, in some cases, they can vary between eight and twenty meters.
This data layer includes contour lines and dimensional points as points and text. Each file covers an area of approximately 250 km2.
The web service is produced using topographic data at a scale of 1/20,000 in the south and map data from Natural Resources Canada (CanVec product) at a scale of 1/50,000 in the north.This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).
