HFIOSM_1980s_v1_6.zip
The Human Footprint Inventory (HFI) for the Oil Sands Monitoring (OSM) Region provides historical spatial information on human-induced land disturbances across the OSM Region of Alberta, representing conditions circa 1980s. Developed by the Alberta Biodiversity Monitoring Institute (ABMI) in collaboration with the Alberta Human Footprint Monitoring Program (AHFMP) and OSM, the dataset was derived from the 2023 Human Footprint Inventory using historical aerial photographs, satellite imagery, existing geospatial datasets, and year-of-origin information to reconstruct human footprint conditions during the 1980s. The dataset contains 105 human footprint feature types organized into 19 sublayers, including roads, seismic lines, pipelines, well sites, mining areas, industrial facilities, timber harvesting, agriculture, and residential development. It provides polygon-based information on the spatial extent and classification of historical anthropogenic disturbances. The dataset supports historical land-use assessment, analysis of human footprint changes, and evaluation of long-term anthropogenic disturbances and cumulative effects within the Oil Sands Region
