Pierre Tardif

Development Lead
Natural Resources Canada
Participates in 2 items

Pierre Tardif is a graduate in geomatics from the University of Sherbrooke and has a particular interest in geomatics applications in the hydrospatial field. With more than 10 years of experience within Natural Resources Canada, he is now the development coordinator for the new Canadian Hydrospatial Network (CHN). Pierre is responsible for the advancement and implementation of the CHN with regard to tool development and data modeling. His expertise primarily focuses on extracting hydrography from elevation data, where he and his team use advanced techniques to accurately extract and model hydrographic networks across the country. His presence at this conference demonstrates his desire to share his knowledge and collaborate with other professionals in the field. Pierre looks forward to contributing to enriching discussions and promoting best practices in hydrospatial geomatics in Canada and beyond.

The new Canadian Hydrospatial Network (CHN) is set to replace the National Hydrographic Network (NHN) for Canada. Designed for improved use in hydrological models, the CHN is analysis ready with full-network traversing ability, and value-added attributes such as stream order. The CHN is also created from higher-resolution source data and better aligned to elevation than the NHN, where possible, and has been streamlined for production and maintenance.Work is on-going to refine methods a...
