SWOOP2015
2015 will be the third coordinated imagery acquisition for this area, the most recent being 2010. Partnership building for this phase will begin in the summer of 2014. LIO will be planning an information session for potential partners early in the fall of 2014.
COOP2016
The central Ontario project will build on a locally coordinated project that captured imagery in the spring of 2010. The goal will be to acquire a larger area with more partners and support from LIO in the spring of 2016. Planning for this project will begin early in 2015.
Near North 2017
This project will be primarily targeted to larger municipal areas and Conservation Authority watersheds in the north. The extents of the proposed project areas have not been finalized and will require discussions with all potential partners over the next few years.
GTA
Municipalities within the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) have entered into separate agreements to acquire and access imagery products. As a result, Land Information Ontario is acquiring imagery on behalf of Provincial Ministries in the municipalities of Halton, Peel, York, Durham and Metro Toronto under an internal use licence. The imagery will be used by Ministry business areas for planning, environmental, agricultural, development, transportation and natural resource applications.
If you are interested in, or have any questions about these projects, please contact Mike Robertson, Imagery Project Manager, by e-mail mike.robertson@ontario.ca or by phone (705) 755-1280.
