They offer an up-to-date image of the ecoforest map for the year of production. The maps represent the result of the photo-interpretation of aerial photographs taken during the most recent ecoforestry inventory of southern Quebec to which were added natural disturbances (fires, epidemics, windfalls, etc.) and forest interventions (harvesting, thinning and reforestation) carried out in the public forest following the year in which they were taken.
