Ontario Public Service (OPS) Region Coordinate system: 4269 - "NAD83" Abstract: This data set is a polygon coverage that can be used to identify an administrative boundary dividing Ontario into four common upper-level regions based upon upper tier municipal boundaries managed by the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing (MMAH). The Ontario Public Service (OPS) has adopted these boundaries for administrative and functional purposes which will facilitate enterprise initiatives and enhance customer service. Ministries will realign their regional boundaries to these upper level boundaries over time, where and when feasible.
