Mississauga Data is a website that contains urban planning related reports, newsletters, brochures and data. The Information Planning Research Unit manages statistical data including: population; demographics; census; development monitoring/activity; growth forecasts; housing; employment; office; land use; vacant employment lands, and the environment.
This data resource was downloaded from the City of Mississauga Open Data Catalogue in September 2012.
The resource includes the following vector coverages:
This data set is available in Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) co-ordinates; horizontal datum is North American Datum (NAD) 83 UTM zone 17. Data are stored as Esri shapefiles. Other data formats can be accommodated, as the Geospatial Centre has access to a number of conversion utilities.
This data set is available at the Geospatial Centre reference desk during reference hours. Library reference staff are available to provide further information about these data sets and to deliver data upon request.
There are public workstations in the Geospatial Centre that provide access to ArcGIS software programs, program extensions and data manipulation utilities. Patrons may use the Geographic Information System (GIS) and image processing software in the library to view and manipulate the data. UWaterloo faculty, students and staff may copy these data for use elsewhere.
These data may be exported from ArcGIS in a choice of bitmapped formats (also known as raster graphics) including JPG, TIFF, GIF, and BMP or in a choice of vector graphics formats including Adobe Illustrator (AI), Encapsulated Postscript (EPS), Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) or PDF. Yet another option is printing the image on the library's colour printer.
Terms of use (PDF) are intended to protect and promote the City of Mississauga's commitments to open data and ensure that the recipients of these datasets give back to the community the benefits they derive from these datasets and other information downloaded from the City of Mississauga Publications and Open Data Catalogue.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
