In Budget 2021, the government tabled a recovery plan for jobs, growth, and resilience. Within the budget were specific investments to promoting a healthy environment for a healthy economy, with $145.5 million dedicated to supporting initiatives that will increase resiliency to the natural hazards of wildfires and floods, which are becoming more frequent, severe, and devastating due to climate change and urban development. Flood hazard maps are essential to un...
The landscapes in the Northwest Territories (NWT, Canada) are amongst the most rapidly changing in the world due to climate-induced permafrost thaw. This presentation provides an overview of recent remote sensing and mapping investigations of permafrost thaw landslides across different spatial and temporal scales in the NWT. A common thread of ever-expanding geospatial capabilities (remote sensing, machine learning) is juxtaposed against rapidly intensifying permafrost thaw with many growi...

Dr. Marshall and Keith Masback will explore climate change and what happens at the intersection of climate and the Earth’s surface.
Join our DG Panel discussion moderated by Jonathan Murphy, Managing Director of GoGeomatics Canada. Our panelists are Eric Laliberté, Éric Loubier and David Harper.As a country spanning almost 10 million square kilometres, Canada has always faced a unique challenge in collecting the day-to-day information needed to provide critical services to Canadians. Today, space offers a unique perspective that is increasingly important to under...

The increase in the availability of high-resolution lidar and other point cloud datasets has given rise to the use of this data for detecting change in the environment over time. Continual improvements in airborne technology and the miniaturization of the requisite sensors has cultivated a nimble new branch of the industry that provides cost-effective data collection services virtually on demand. This ability to employ temporal analysis of the geospatial landsca...

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...
Mardi 8 Mars, 2022
This workshop will use open tools and standards to create STAC compliant data for a Canadian Federal Dataset. The workshop will focus on the nuances of working on Canadian Data in a Cloud environment. It will further demonstrate modern geospatial data science tools to create a SpatioTemporal Asset Catalogue. Sparkgeo will also demonstrate use in leading desktop and cloud mapping software.
Jeudi 10 Mars, 2022
Join this session to get the latest information on Maxar foundational products as well as demonstrations and round-table conversation with our subject matter experts. Please bring your questions if you're a current user, or come ready to experience the industry's best satellite imagery for the first time.
Mercredi 27 Mars, 2024
The United States’ National Geodetic Survey (NGS) plans to modernize their National Spatial Reference System (NSRS) in 2025, including adopting a new dynamic geometric reference (the North American Terrestrial Reference Frame of 2022 (NATRF2022)) and a new geoid-based height system (the North American-Pacific Geopotential Datum of 2022 (NAPGD2022)). To ensure continued geospatial referencing compatibility, the Canadian Geodetic Survey (CGS) plans to modernize the Canadian Spatial Reference Sy...
