The [Canadian Active Control] system consists of unattended tracking stations, referred to as Active Control Points(ACPs), which continuously record carrier phase and pseudo-range measurements for all satellites of the Global Positioning System(GPS) within station view. Each ACP is equipped with a high precision dual frequency GPS receiver and an atomic frequency standard. Temperature, pressure and humidity data are also collected at selected ACP sites. The data collected at each ACP is retrieved on a daily basis by a central processing facility in Ottawa.  2, record 1, English, - active%20control%20point

The main technologies for the assembly of nanodevices through nanomanipulations with scanning probe microscopes and nanorobotic manipulators are overviewed, focusing on that of nanotubes. Key techniques for nanoassembly include the preparation of nano building blocks and property characterization of them, the positioning of the building blocks with nanometer-scale resolution, and the connection of them. Nanorobotic manipulations, which are characterized by multiple degrees of freedom(DOFs) with both position and orientation control, independently actuated multiprobes, and a real-time observation system, are one of the most promising technologies for assembling complex nanodevices in three-dimensional space.  2, record 3, English, - nanoassembly

The planimetric accuracy of the orthoimages depends on control data, the digital elevation model(DEM), and the methodology used to extract the positions of the control points on the image. The best sources of control data currently available in Canada were used to generate the orthoimages. A number of control sources were used to correct the Landsat 7 images, namely provincial vector data, roads resulting from the global positioning system(GPS), data from the National Topographic Data Base(NTBD), and geometrically corrected aerial photography(orthophotos). The control points extracted from the sources generally represent road intersections and centres of mass of lakes or islands. Different DEMs also served in generating these orthoimages; provincial DEMs and Canadian Digital Elevation Data(CDED) at the 1 : 50 000 and the 1 : 250 000 scales. Planimetric accuracy is obtained by analyzing the parameters of the geometric correction model(SRIT), the accuracy of the source data used to correct the image, and DEM accuracy.  2, record 11, English, - planimetric%20accuracy

La précision planimétrique des ortho-images dépend du contrôle, du modèle numérique d'élévation (MNE) et de la méthodologie utilisée pour extraire la position des points de contrôle dans l'image. Les meilleures sources de contrôle disponibles au Canada à cette époque ont servi à générer les ortho-images. Plusieurs sources de contrôle ont été utilisées pour corriger les images Landsat 7, soit : des données vectorielles provinciales, des routes issues du système de positionnement global (GPS), des données de la Base nationale de données topographiques (BNDT) et des photographies aériennes corrigées géométriquement (ortho-photos). Ces points de contrôle extraits des sources provenaient généralement des intersections de routes et des centres de masse des lacs ou d'îles. Différents MNE ont aussi servi à générer ces ortho-images, soit : des MNE provinciaux, des données numériques d'élévation du Canada (DNEC) au 1/50 000 et des DNEC au 1/250 000.
