ARCTUS is involved in a number of projects that make intensive use of in-situ data and remote sensing imagery from various sensors. Below are some of our recent projects.
The smart port project with the Port of Montreal focused on monitoring the environment around the construction zone of the future harbor at Contrecœur. It was a Canadian Space Agency–funded project for supporting space-based solutions for environmental monitoring around port development in the Saint Lawrence area. The project’s objective was to develop Earth observation solutions to monitor water turbidity, surface sediment, particulate matter, sediment plumes, shoreline chan
Human activities and the maritime industry can have a considerable impact on ecosystems by modifying coastal dynamics and weakening natural habitats of great ecological value.Many actors in the industry voluntarily adhere to environmental certification programs to improve their environmental performance. While in-situ monitoring methods have limitations in terms of spatial coverage, advancements in satellite remote sensing, artificial intelligence, and big data processing off
