GSC-Quebec has a diverse and dynamic staff that focuses its activities in Eastern Canada, concentrating on regional Grenville, Appalachian and Quaternary surveys. These surveys provide the geological framework for studies targeting a region’s resource potential (metals, hydrocarbons or groundwater) and developing the appropriate exploration tools. In addition, knowledge of the physical environment and geological processes has led to development of unique expertise in environmental dynamics, with applications in the areas of natural hazards, climate change and human health. Finally, through the personnel of the Digital Cartography and Photogrammetry Laboratory (LCNP), GSC-Quebec supports activities aimed at technology development for integrating geoscientific information into spatially referenced relational databases and for increasing dissemination of that information to its clients and partners, as well as increasing their access to it. Areas of scientific expertise
