The Association of Canada Lands Surveyord (ACLS) has developed a certification model for hydrographers which, has been officially recognized by the IHO/FIG/ICA International Board of Standards and Competence for Hydrographic Surveyors and Nautical Cartographers (IBSC) in April of 2016. The ACLS program is the second internationally recognized scheme in the world. Certification for a hydrographic surveyor is desirable because: - Certification provides a formal...
In this short technical demonstration, I’ll explore some of the ways that Planetscope’s new 8-band capabilities can be used to both detect and monitor invasive plant species, such as Watermoss-Salvinia, within water bodies. We’ll focus on the role that the 4 new spectral bands (Coastal Blue (433-453nm) , Yellow (600-620nm), Green-II (547-583nm) and Red-edge (697-713nm)) can have in this use case. I’ll compare how some spectral indices unlocked via 8-band data compare to previous 4-band, RG...

Please join us for the MDA-hosted workshop on multi-band SAR presented by MDA (Canada), Iceye (Finland) and VENG (Argentina). After presenting SAR fundamentals, we will dive deep into the specifications of X-band (Iceye), C-band (RADARSAT-2) and L-band (SAOCOM) missions, as well as the sensors’ merit and strength in specific applications that are of relevance to Canada. The last hour would be Q&As and discussion.
