Canada Centre for Remote Sensing

The two communities of Sheshatshiu (south) and North West River (north) straddle the narrow outlet of Grand Lake, where its waters empty into Lake Melville.


The work of the Canada Centre for Remote Sensing focuses on the Priorities of the Earth Sciences Sector.

Climate Change

Data from earth observation satellites are used to detect and assess the impacts of climate variability and change on Canada's landmass and coastal zone.

  Northern Development

Remote sensing monitoring and mapping methods for land, water and man-made features of our vast northern areas.


Hyperspectral Techniques

Detailed spectral analysis of surface features with advanced remote sensing data and techniques.

 
Natural Hazards

Scientists use satellite imagery to better understand the causes and effects of natural hazards.


Atlas of Canada

Discover Canada through national maps and facts. This online Atlas offers a collection of maps and related information about Canada.

 
Geodetic Survey Division

Provides a national coordinate system which serves as a reference for all mapping, charting, navigation, boundary demarcation, crustal deformation, and other georeferencing needs.
