In 2019, Muskoka experienced significant flooding due to an unusually high amount of snowpack and significant spring rainfall. Bracebridge, Huntsville, Muskoka Lakes, and the District of Muskoka declared states of emergency as the water levels rose. The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) captured helicopter aerial footage during this emergency. This application shows the extent of the flood through an interactive map with videos and pictures from helicopter and ground footage. Thank you to the OPP for allowing the District to release these videos to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Muskoka Votes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In anticipation of Municipal Elections later this year, the District partnered with the area municipalities in Muskoka to highlight our local municipal council elections. In this interactive StoryMap, voters are able to access information about their local candidates for the upcoming 2022 election. Information in this dashboard includes voting wards, candidate Mayors, candidate District Councillors, and candidate Ward Councillors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Forest Fire Preparedness<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Working closely together with the fire chiefs of Muskoka, the Muskoka Emergency Response Committee and the District\u2019s Environment and Watershed Team, the Geomatics team created a StoryMap highlighting current forest fire conditions in Muskoka. The app also highlights the various fire stations and emergency reception centres located across the District and links to the towns\u2019 and townships\u2019 fire station websites to show the current fire ratings and bans in place for each area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn more about these latest apps and other valuable geomatics (GIS) information available for Muskoka by visiting the <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/map.muskoka.on.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Muskoka GeoHub<\/a><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/map.muskoka.on.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a presentation to Council on May 16, the District\u2019s Geomatics team highlighted several new apps that have been added to the Muskoka GeoHub since its launch in 2020.
