The Canada Centre for Remote Sensing is
the government of Canada’s centre of expertise for space-based remote sensing
science and technology; supporting the use of Earth observation data and information
for over 30 years.
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.

|
Remote sensing monitoring and mapping methods for land, water and man-made
features of our vast northern areas.
|
Detailed spectral analysis of surface features with advanced remote sensing
data and techniques.
|
|
Scientists use satellite imagery to better understand the causes and effects
of natural hazards.
