Description

This collection is a legacy product that is no longer supported. It may not meet current government standards. Canada's Orthoimages 2005-2010 is the national medium-resolution imagery coverage of Canada. These digital raster data acquired by the Spot4 and Spot5 satellites comprise five spectral bands, namely: a panchromatic band having 10 m pixels and four multispectral bands having pixels of 20 m. These orthoimages were produced according to the 1983 North American Reference System (NAD83SCRS) according to the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) and Lambert Conformal Conic (LCC) mapping. The set of orthoimages was created with the most accurate control data available at the time of its creation: Landsat7 Imagery Control Points, National Road Network (NRN) ) and the Landsat7 Orthorectified Imagery.
