The Canadian Geodetic Survey provides the fundamental reference frame and standards for the measurement of latitude, longitude, elevation and gravity anywhere in Canada and monitors motions of [the] continental landmass in support of geomatics and geoscience. This geospatial reference frame underpins all activities where positions matter, enabling mapping, land surveying, water management and engineering activities in Canada. A growing community of research scientists rely on the program's precise positioning and gravity information to study changes in the Earth. The program is delivered by real-time analysis of global satellite data, supporting client services that enable Canadians to use global navigation satellite systems (e.g. GPS) for precise positioning, including heights above sea-level. 2, record 1, English, - Canadian%20Geodetic%20Survey%3A%20Spatially%20Enabling%20Canada

Les levés géodésiques du Canada fournissent les normes et le cadre de référence fondamentaux pour la mesure de la latitude, de la longitude, de l'élévation et de la gravité partout au Canada et surveillent les mouvements de la masse continentale en soutien à la géomatique et à la géoscience. Ce cadre de référence géospatial souligne toutes les activités où les positions sont importantes, ce qui permet des activités de cartographie, d’arpentage, de gestion de l'eau et d’ingénierie au Canada. Une communauté croissante de chercheurs s’appuie sur les informations précises de positionnement et de gravité du programme pour étudier les changements sur la Terre. Le programme est offert au moyen d’une analyse en temps réel des données satellitaires mondiales, en soutenant les services aux clients qui permettent aux Canadiens d’utiliser les systèmes mondiaux de navigation par satellite(p. ex., GPS) pour un positionnement précis, y compris pour les élévations au-dessus du niveau de la mer. 2, record 1, French, - Lev%C3%A9s%20g%C3%A9od%C3%A9siques%20du%20Canada%C2%A0%3A%20Le%20Canada%20%C3%A0%20r%C3%A9f%C3%A9rence%20spatiale

Since the first commercial high resolution satellite was launched in late 1999, the potential of metric accuracy has been widely demonstrated. The first imagery acquired by the Ikonos II satellite (1m pan resolution and 4m XS resolution) opened a way in the imaging system technologies followed by other sensors like SPOTS (spatial resolution of 2,5 m) EROS (minimal Ground Sample Distance of 1,8 m), QuickBird II (spatial resolution at nadir of 0,61 cm). 3, record 11, English, - high%20resolution%20satellite

IKONOS est le premier satellite haute résolution d’un mètre à transmettre des images commerciales de la Terre. [...] Le satellite de 730 kg est situé en orbite haute à une altitude de 705 km et tourne à une vitesse de 6, 6 kilomètres par seconde. Ces images ont eu une influence positive sur la vie des gens, les entreprises et les gouvernements du monde entier, en effet, elles se sont révélé non seulement d’une aide précieuse en urbanisme, en agriculture, en cartographie, en sécurité nationale, en assurances et gestion des risques en télécommunications, mais elles ont aussi favorisé la prise de mesures adéquates en cas de catastrophes. [...] Auparavant, les satellites à haute résolution étaient exclusivement réservés au domaine de la défense; or IKONOS a ouvert la porte à nombre de nouvelles applications commerciales. 3, record 11, French, - satellite%20%C3%A0%20haute%20r%C3%A9solution

Le satellite ALOS(Advanced Land Observing Satellite) s’inscrit dans la série de satellites japonais JERS-1(Japanese Earth Resources Satellite-1) et ADEOS(Advanced Earth Observing Satellite) faisant appel aux technologies de pointe dans le domaine de l'observation de la terre. ALOS servira pour la cartographie, l'observation régionale, le suivi des catastrophes et l'évaluation des ressources. ALOS possède trois instruments de télédétection : l'instrument panchromatique PRISM(Panchromatic Remote-sensing Instrument for Stereo Mapping) pour la cartographie numérique d’altitude, le radiomètre AVNIR-2(Advanced Visible and Near Infrared Radiometer type 2) pour l'observation précise de la couverture au sol, et le capteur radar PALSAR(Phased Array type L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar) pour l'observation de la terre de jour et de nuit et sous toutes les conditions climatiques. 2, record 13, French, - satellite%20ALOS
