Canadian Geographic Information Infrastructure

Canadian Geographic Information Infrastructure (CGII) is a comprehensive digital system that organizes, stores, and shares geographic data across Canada. It integrates various sources like maps, satellite images, and location-based information to facilitate accurate analysis and decision-making for government, businesses, and researchers. CGII ensures that spatial data is consistent, accessible, and secure, enabling efficient planning, resource management, and environmental monitoring. Essentially, it provides the framework for understanding Canada’s landscape and spatial relationships through reliable digital tools and data sharing, supporting informed decisions and sustainable development nationwide.
