Details

This system uses artificial intelligence applied to satellite and sensor data to automatically detect when the quality of inland water bodies is degrading. It is developed by Environment and Climate Change Canada and is currently in development — not yet in live operation. The system does not collect or process any personal information about members of the public; its outputs are intended for Government of Canada employees responsible for water quality oversight.
