CanadianGIS.com is an extension of my web site that I started back in 2006 after I noticed that there was a real need to have one good place on the web to help find Canadian GIS resources. The site helps provide others with resources about Canadian GIS data, basic information about Canadian companies that provide GIS services, locations of Canadian data and maps, information about GIS events, places to find Canadian GIS employment and education info and many other great resources.
GIS Mobile Mapping
During the fall of 2003, the Applied Geomatics Research Group (AGRG) added eight weather stations to their already existing weather network. The weather stations designed by Campbell Scientific were spread through out the Annapolis Valley (Nova Scotia) region from Digby east to Grand Pre. The data from these weather stations needed to be periodically collected [...]
Geomatics – GIS Spatial Modeling
GIS Spatial Modeling is the process of modeling, examining, and interpreting geographic data.It uses a set of defined methodology and analytical procedures to derive information with spatial relationships between geographic phenomena. It can be useful for evaluating suitability and capability, for estimating and predicting, and for interpreting and understanding real world situations. There are four traditional types: spatial overlay surface analysis, linear analysis, and raster analysis.
Geomatics – GIS data base modeling
The design of the spatial database is the formal process of analyzing facts about the real world into a structured model. Database design is characterized by the following phases: requirement analysis, logical design and physical design. In more common terms, you basically need a plan, a design layout and then the data to complete the process.
Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
GIS operates on many levels and over the past decade has become an essential tool for most urban and resource planning and management organizations. On the most basic level, GIS can be used for simple digital cartography, to create various types of maps.
Remote Sensing
Remote sensing involves the use of technical instruments or sensors to record reflected or emitted energy and then processing, analyzing, and applying that information to determine the spectral and spatial relations of distance objects and materials. …
GIS Spatial modeling for Kejimkujik National Park
This technical report details the methodologies and issues that were encountered with a Spatial GIS vegetation database and GIS Spatial modeling project at the Applied Geomatics Research Group (AGRG) during the summer of 2004 that involved generating a spatial geographic database for Jeremy’s Bay Campground of Kejimkujik National Park and Historic Site. High resolution aerial photography acquired from a previous AGRG aerial photography mission was used along with extensive data collected during a Rapid Vegetation Assessment survey and a detailed forest stand interpretation.
Spatial Database Modeling of forest stands in Kejimkujik National Park
Here is a poster for a summer GIS project that I worked on for Parks Canada showing Spatial Database Modeling of forest stands in Kejimkujik National Park.
