Environment Canada has been making use of automated surface weather observation systems since 1969, with the installation of the MARS I (Meteorological Automatic Reporting System) generation of autostations. MARS II followed in 1975, MAPS I (Modular Acquisition Processing System) in 1979 and MAPS II in 1983. In general, these autostations observe and transmit only the basic weather parameters of pressure, temperature, humidity, and wind speed and direction, although a few have the capability to report cloud, visibility, and precipitation accumulation.

Environnement Canada exploite des systèmes automatiques d'observation météorologique en surface depuis 1969, soit depuis l'avènement de la génération de stations automatiques MARS I (Meteorological Automatic Reporting System). Puis ont succédé les MARS II en 1975, les MAPS I (Modular Acquisition Processing System) en 1979 et les MAPS II en 1983. En général, ces stations automatiques mesurent et transmettent seulement les paramètres météorologiques de base (pression, température, humidité, vitesse et direction du vent), mais certaines peuvent observer la nébulosité, la visibilité et la hauteur des précipitations.
