Geospatial Data

The Map & Data Library has an extensive collection of geospatial datasets covering all areas of the world, with a particular concentration on Canadian data. The majority of datasets are available for download by members of the University of Toronto community (faculty, staff, and students) through the Map & Data Library website and Scholars GeoPortal. Selected datasets must be accessed in person. We are happy to provide assistance with locating the appropriate data for your research needs during reference hours.
