GEO.ca Initiatives Understanding Canada’s land from space
Mapping products derived from satellite imagery depict Canada’s vast landscapes, including land cover, water resources, snow and ice extent, vegetation cover indicators and more.
Satellites play a crucial role in mapping Canada’s diverse and vast landscapes. They deliver consistent, reliable, high-quality, and detailed observations. Advanced radar and optical imaging technologies enable accurate and efficient mapping of the country’s landmass.
Satellite-based mapping improves our understanding of Canada’s environment and supports evidence-based decision-making. They are used for impact assessments, monitoring environmental changes and managing emergencies like floods and wildfires.
