What is EODMS?

The Earth Observation Data Management System (EODMS) is a geospatial platform provided by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) open to the general public to discover and download authoritative Canadian Earth Observation (EO) raster data. Check out our EODMS How-To Guide and our [prezi.com/p/1zp4tsgyn7uz/ Prezi]. The site is located at https://eodms-sgdot.nrcan-rncan.gc.ca

History

With the second largest landmass on earth and the longest coastline in the world, Canada relies on satellite technology to monitor its land and borders. Providing access to this technology is a core mandate of NRCan's Canada Centre for Mapping and Earth Observation (CCMEO). Through partnerships across government, strong links to academia and the private sector, including international collaborations, CCMEO ensures that satellite data is available to serve the needs of the GC and all Canadians. Since 1971, CCMEO has accumulated an EO data archive in excess of 2 PB. This data originated from many satellites and airborne sensors. The 2012 Canadian Federal Budget included NRCan’s revitalization plan which sought to improve Canada’s EO satellite capacity and access to this data. This plan was realised through the purchase and installation of four (4) new satellite antennas as well as the brand new EODMS which replaced several legacy systems.

Data Services

NRCan continues its role as Data Steward for many EO datasets providing services in support of GC priorities on the economic development of Canada's natural resources, the North, safety, security, sovereignty, and environmental monitoring.

EODMS

RCM. Registered public users can download GRD and GCD products which are limited to the Canada Landmass, coarser or equal to 16 m. and World Maritime - coarser than or equal to 100 m. Products over non-Canadian landmasses will not be available. The scene has to be completely within the Canadian Landmass. This includes inland water (e.g. Great Lakes in Canada), but excludes and must not contain / overlap at all with coastline (inc. Arctic) waters and St-Lawrence river.

JAXA ALOS-2: NRCan is pleased to announce on 2022-10-17 that ALOS-2 🗾 now has top-tier support in EODMS including spatial search 🗺, narrowing search criteria 🔍, as well as automation in the official command line interface, eodms-cli 💻. This integration builds on increased partnership between JAXA and the GC 🥂.

MULTI-MISSION ARCHIVE (MMA)

The storage backbone of EODMS is CCMEO’s Multi-Mission Archive (MMA) which is the Canadian authorized archive RADARSAT, air photos and NMSO commercial imagery. The data is archived in accordance with NRCan's obligations to the Remote Sensing Space Systems Act

Sentinel Near Real-time Canada Mirror

ESA/COPERNICUS

In 2015, Canada joined the Sentinel collaborative ground segment to facilitate Near-realtime (NRT) access to Sentinel satellite data. CCMEO retrieves Sentinel-1,2,3,6 data from the Copernicus Collaborative Hub over a high speed science network and stages it our site with reliable download speeds for Canadian users.

EUMETSAT

Our collection of Sentinel-3 OLCI L2 WFR products is from EUMETSAT, seasonally over Canada, from https://eoportal.eumetsat.int/cas/login.

PRESENT AND FUTURE

CCMEO provides this service using a transfer system to pull EO products from ESA's servers in Europe and then stages the data on EODMS with a life of 14 days. From 2015-2022, this access has operationalized the use of European data in key GC programs. *Public* NRT access was being rolled out on Jan 26, 2023.

RCM, RADARSAT-2, NMSO

RADARSAT CONSTELLATION MISSION (RCM)

For FREE GC/VETTED ACCESS to RCM:

Create an EODMS account
Check the "I have an OHS Identifier" checkbox in your profile.

Submit your application:
- For NON-GOVERNMENT users, please submit an application to How to become a user.
- For GOVERNMENT of CANADA users submit your EODMS username to the Canadian Space Agency in an email to r-sat@asc-csa.gc.ca
Finally, you will receive an email when your EODMS account is ready.

NOTE: Ensure the ORGANIZATION NAME you specify on your VETTING APPLICATION exactly matches the organization name entered in your EODMS ACCOUNT registration

NMSO Commercial Satellite Imagery

The NMSO-CSI is a buy-once, use-many model to prevent duplicate procurement commercial satellite imagery across the GC. All departments with commercial satellite imagery needs should route all procurement through NMSO E60SQ-120001 and E60PI-22SATL-001 after which imagery (callup 💿 or subscription 🎫) will be loaded on to EODMS to be re-used by the whole of government. Pricing is available on SOSA. The E60PI-22SATL-001 (renewed in 2023) also appoints Indigenous Peoples 🍃 as automatic recipients of all EO data acquired. Create an EODMS account and then email you username to eodms-sgdot@nrcan-rncan.gc.ca and CC you GC Department NMSO point of contact if available.

RADARSAT-2

For free GC access to RADARSAT-2:

Create an EODMS account
Provide you username to the Canadian Space Agency at r-sat@asc-csa.gc.ca

CSA RADARSAT-2 Project Programs

Did you know that CSA coordinates several [RADARSAT-2 special access programs] to encourage the use of space data. Also available is access for the The International Charter: Space and Major Disasters. Find out more here.

Qu'est-ce que SGDOT?

Le Système de données d'observation de la Terre (SGDOT) est une plate-forme géospatiale entièrement intégrée fournie au grand public par RNCan / RNCan pour la découverte et l'accès à des données faisant autorité en observation de la Terre. Consultez également le EODMS How-To Guide. Le site est situé à l'adresse https://www.eodms-sgdot.nrcan-rncan.gc.ca/index_fr.jsp.

Histoire

Avec la deuxième masse terrestre la plus importante au monde et le plus long littoral du monde, le Canada s'appuie sur la technologie par satellite pour surveiller ses terres et ses frontières. Fournir l'accès à cette technologie est l'un des principaux mandats du Centre canadien de cartographie et d’observation de la Terre (CCCOT) de RNCan. Le CCCOT est le centre d’expertise du gouvernement du Canada en matière de télédétection et de géodésie. Grâce à des partenariats avec des intervenants gouvernementaux, des liens étroits avec les universités et le secteur privé, y compris des collaborations internationales, le CCMEO veille à ce que les données satellitaires soient disponibles pour répondre aux besoins du gouvernement canadien et des Canadiens. Depuis 1971, CCCOT a accumulé plus de 1 PB d'archives contenant des données d'observation de la Terre. Ces données proviennent de divers satellites et capteurs aériens. Le budget fédéral canadien de 2012 incluait le plan de revitalisation de RNCan qui visait à maintenir et à améliorer la capacité de satellites de Terre d’OE du Canada et l’accès à ces données. Ce plan a été réalisé grâce à l’achat et à l’installation de quatre (4) nouvelles antennes et du système EODMS, qui a mis hors service plusieurs systèmes existants.

Services

Aujourd’hui, le CCMEO fournit plusieurs services de données d’OT pour appuyer les priorités du gouvernement du Canada en matière de développement économique des ressources naturelles, du Nord, de sécurité, de sûreté, de souveraineté et de surveillance de l’environnement.
