The Canadian Geospatial Data Infrastructure
The Canadian Geospatial Data Infrastructure (CGDI) is a coordinated system that organizes and shares geographic information across Canada. It connects government agencies, organizations, and the public to access and share maps, satellite images, and location data efficiently. CGDI helps improve decision-making, planning, and resource management by providing accurate and standardized spatial information. Think of it as a national digital library for geographic data, ensuring everyone works with consistent, reliable information about Canada's landscapes, infrastructure, and environment.
