Join us for the the launch of GeoIgnite with Jonathan Murphy, the Chair of GeoIgnite, and Dr. Minda Suchan of MDA.Abstract of MDA Keynote: Canada is the world leader in wide area space-based radar Earth observation through the highly successful RADARSAT program, supporting numerous operational and scientific uses for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data. MDA, in conjunction with the Canadian government, has created an internationally recognized brand and reputation for...
The Canadian Centre for Mapping and Earth Observation (NRCan) continues its work to implement the National Elevation Data Strategy. Through this strategy, one of NRCan's goal is to provide Canadians with an accurate three-dimensional representation of the country, in support of government priorities such as flood mapping. Because of the enormous task of obtaining a high-precision and up-to-date national elevation layer, NRCan works with different entities.The data coverage of the st...
Over the past year, Minerva Intelligence, a Vancouver-based cognitive AI company, has been awarded two contracts with Natural Resources Canada to design schemas at a national level: the National Flood Hazard Data Layer (NFHDL) and the National Hydro Network V2 (NHNv2). You might be asking yourself why an AI company is designing and building these important database structures. Minerva's cognitive AI system makes use of semantically inoperable data in knowledge graphs and has designed syste...
À l'automne 2020, NV5 Geospatial, propulsé par Quantum Spatial, a été mandaté par la Communauté Métropolitaine de Montréal (CMM) pour réaliser l'un des plus grands levés lidar topobathymétriques aériens fluviaux jamais entrepris au Canada. Cette présentation examinera de plus près le contexte, les objectifs, les défis, la technologie, la méthodologie, ainsi que les résultats et conclusions préliminaires de cette importante étude aérienne des vingt-huit principaux cours d'eau entourant la v...

In this presentation by Avenza Systems, we will be showcasing how high quality cartographic outputs after your data analysis can actually be achieved! We will demonstrate how to develop and design a map from raw statistical census data in Adobe Illustrator by leveraging the geospatial functionalities of MAPublisher - the industry-standard cartography solution for high quality graphical output. We’ll show how GIS data can be imported, managed, and transformed on-the-fly all d...
With rapid advances in Earth observation, cloud computing, and analytics technologies, more information on our changing world is more readily available than ever before. Planet is an aerospace and data analytics company at the forefront of these advances -- working to make global change visible, accessible, and actionable, Planet images the full Earth daily at 3.5m resolution and anywhere sub-daily at <50cm. In this talk, we’ll hear from Tara O’Shea, Planet’s Director of Forest Programs, o...
