NMSO-CSI Overview

The NMSO-CSI is a PSPC-coordinated standing offer contract for the Government of Canada to procure commercial satellite imagery in support of its mandates. It has been in place since 2012 and is refreshed every year by DND, NRCan, and PSPC in order to maintain and add new data providers. The current NMSO refresh can be found here: https://buyandsell.gc.ca/procurement-data/tender-notice/PW-19-00860905

EODMS & NMSO-CSI

The Earth Observation Data Management System (EODMS) is the designated government archive to which all NMSO-CSI providers must deliver order to.

Did you know that all Government of Canada (GoC) employees can have free access to NMSO Commercial Satellite Imagery (CSI) already purchased by the GoC available on EODMS? You need only send an account request to your Department NMSO point of contact (PoC) for your account approval. You can find the request form and your PoC on our GCPedia (Government-only) page, EODMS Account Approvals for Government and Special Access
