Résumé

Spanning close to 250,000 km in length, the Canadian coastline is the longest in the world. Collecting and managing data that is required by the Canadian Hydrographic Service (CHS) to produce navigational products for such a vast area can be challenging. Despite CHS products covering the full extent of Canadian waters, gaps in the data persist. To prioritize these gaps, CHS has developed a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) tool, the CHS Priority Planning Tool (CPPT). The derived output of the CPPT helps prioritize the areas that pose the highest risk to navigation.
