The Manitoba Land Initiative was developed by the Government of Manitoba in order to make various types of geographic data of the province readily available on the internet. It contains various datasets in the following categories: Administrative Boundaries, Base Maps, Digital Elevation Models (DEM), Digital Imagery, Environment, Forest Inventory, Geographical Names, Geology Mapping, Hydrography, Land Use/Cover Maps, Municipal Maps, Quarter Section Grids, Soil Classification, Spatial Referencing, Topographic Maps, Town and Village Plans, and Transportation. The sample image provided in this record depicts a layer describing different types of rock, available from the "Geology Mapping" section of the website.

All data are publicly available free from the website.
