The Geomatics for Connecting Canadians program aims to make ESS geospatial information more accessible to clients on-line, in order to enable its wider use and, consequently, contribute to more informed decision-making.

  • Harmonization of ESS information management, licensing and distribution policy

Committed Outcomes

  • The Connecting Canadians program continually improves the on-line access to ESS geospatial products through common processes and tools
