"Great Lakes - St. Lawrence Basin Watersheds (GLBW) v2.0 - Ontario Water Resources Act" boundary file portrays the five watersheds (Lake Superior watershed, Lake Huron watershed, Lake Erie watershed, Lake Ontario watershed, and St. Lawrence River watershed) and their connecting channels which included the upstream and downstream connecting channels of each Great Lake. Boundary has been generalized and simplified by removing points at a threshold of 100m. This layer only serves as a purpose for display only as data has been generalized for better web display performance. This layer is a combination of the two shapefiles "ConnectingChannels_OWRA_v2" and "GreatLakesStLawrenceBasinWatersheds_OWRA_v2" which can be downloaded from LIO. Boundary and labels are visible at zoom scale level in between 1:100,001 and 1:1,500,000. Trasnparency set up at 15%.
