The mapping of infrastructures in a forest environment corresponds to the forest territory from which trees have been subtracted for the purpose of installing infrastructure, for example to establish energy transmission lines, agricultural areas or hydroelectric reservoirs, or even for purposes distinct from forest harvesting. The areas contained in this map date back to 2003.

This map covers almost all of the territory south of the 52nd parallel of Quebec's public and private forest. The information constituting it comes from various sources. For example, the Quebec Topographic Database is used to map the discharge of hydroelectric reservoirs. The minimum mapping area is 0.1 ha.
