Fondée en 1882, la Corporation des arpenteurs-géomètres du Québec devient l'Ordre des arpenteurs-géomètres du Québec en 1974. L'Ordre a pour principale fonction d'assurer la protection du public par l'entremise de l'inspection professionnelle, la formation continue et la discipline. Il détermine également les normes de pratique et les règlements qui guident les membres dans leurs activit és professionnelles.
THE AIRBORNE SENSING CORPORATION, is one of Canada's oldest aerial survey companies, operating from Toronto since 1981. We have been involved in a variety of aerial photographic and LiDAR survey and image processing projects throughout North America, Central America, the Caribbean and South America. Since our inception, we have conducted aerial urban mapping, watershed studies, forest inventory surveys, wildlife studies, water quality surveys, colour infrared environmental studies, mining exploration, engineering surveys and bathymetric surveys. AIRBORNE SENSING'S internationally experienced and multi-lingual aircrew, and our multi-purpose aircraft equipped with precise GNSS/IMU, are prepared to respond, sometimes within hours, to any flying mission. From our base of operations in Toronto we have performed survey missions with both our Turbo Aztecs across North America, Central and South America and the Caribbean. Since 2006 we operate dual-port Piper Navajo aircraft suitable for long range multi sensor operations; in 2011 we added a Gulfstream Turbo Commander 840 for large area high altitude surveys and Piper Aztec aircraft for missions requiring slow flight. Most recently, we were part of a team that supplied BING® with oblique and vertical aerial images of the major population clusters of North America. Between 2013 and 2015, ASC flew over 70 cities and took over 700,000 images from the Pacific to the Atlantic and from the Gulf of Mexico to the major Canadian cities. Prior to that, we photographed 1/3 of the Republic of Ecuador over a two-year period. AIRBORNE SENSING has invested considerable sums in applied research resulting in: the creation of Ontario's first colour aerial photofinishing facility; one of the first applications of Global Positioning Systems and Inertial Measurement Systems technology in aerial photogrammetry (both for flight management as well as aerial triangulation); Canada’s first helicopter-based Very Large Scale Photogrammetry capability; Ontario’s first photogrammetric scan facility (Airborne Scans Inc.) and Ontario’s first large format digital camera system, the VEXCEL ULTRACAM D followed by the ULTRACAM X, and another two ULTRACAM Xs; the execution of airborne LiDAR projects; a simultaneous test of Vexcel photography and LiDAR in our dual-port aircraft; as well as products which have consistently met and exceeded Municipal, Provincial and Federal Government standards. Our outputs enable our clients to directly start compilation without them having to execute ground control or aerial triangulation. We also have one of the highest completion percentages of any contractor, finishing projects in tough areas or to tight timelines.

Bachelor of Science in Geomatics 
Département de géomatique Le Cégep Limoilou est un collège d’enseignement général et technique situé dans la ville de Québec. Il offre depuis 45 ans une formation technique en géomatique par le biais de deux voies de spécialisation que sont l’information géospatiale et la cartographie ainsi que l’arpentage et la géodésie. Ces programmes sont d’une durée de trois ans chacun. Le Cégep Limoilou est le seul cégep dans l’Est-du-Québec à offrir le programme et le seul du Québec à offrir les deux voies de spécialisation de la géomatique. Il offre à la fois un tronc commun permettant d’acquérir à la fois la polyvalence et l’efficacité dans sa spécialité recherchée en entreprise. Le département de géomatique offre :
Le technicien en géomatique diplômé du Cégep Limoilou est un spécialiste du traitement de l’information à caractère géographique. Il est en mesure de procéder avec compétence et efficacité aux différentes étapes du processus géomatique (acquisition, structuration, stockage, traitement et diffusion de données géospatiales). Il se démarque par sa capacité à traiter ces données, quelle que soit la voie de spécialisation choisie dans son programme. Au terme de sa formation de trois ans, il peut mettre à profit ses capacités dans les petites et grandes entreprises de géomatique ou de cartographie des secteurs privé, public et parapublic. Les bureaux d’arpentage ont aussi recours à ses compétences ainsi que les entreprises qui doivent gérer une information à caractère géographique ou réaliser des produits géomatiques divers, des cartes et des plans. 
The Université de Sherbrooke is a French-speaking institution spanning six campuses in four cities and two provinces. Each year, it welcomes nearly 40,000 students from more than 88 countries. Recognized as a people-oriented institution, the Université de Sherbrooke stands out for its involvement in sustainable development, its program for free access to mass transit, and its co-operative system, which alternates semesters of academic study with paid work internships. The Department of Applied Geomatics is located on the main Sherbrooke campus in Estrie, renowned for being a dynamic, stimulating, and friendly educational setting. Undergraduate: The Department offers a specialized undergraduate degree (90 credits), including 33 credits in geomatics (geopositioning, mapping, geomatics, remote sensing, image processing, database management, spatial modeling, aerial-photo analysis) and 24 credits in theme-based activities related to the environment (aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, spatial demography, watersheds, urban planning, transportation). The program, which uses a project-based approach, enables students to develop their practical skills through actual projects submitted by partner organizations and businesses. Students can opt to study on a full-time, part-time, or co-operative basis. The undergraduate degree is complemented by two 15-credit undergraduate microprograms in applied geomatics and geography. Graduate: The Department offers a master's degree in geographic science (45 credits) and a doctorate in remote sensing (90 credits). The master's degree has three research streams: geographic environments, geomatics, and remote sensing. Enrollment is regular full-time. A professional stream is also available (sustainable geodevelopment), which can be taken on a regular or co-op basis, either full- or part-time. Four doctoral streams are available: applied geomatics, remote-sensing physics, digital-image processing, and interdisciplinary approach to the environment. Enrollment is full-time. In addition to these programs, the Department offers a graduate microprogram in geomatics (15 credits) and a graduate diploma in applied geomatics (30 credits) that can be taken on a full- or part-time basis. The Department's physical resources include the Centre d’applications et de recherches en télédétection (CARTEL or center for remote-sensing applications and research), one of Canada's leaders in this field. The center is dedicated to advancing remote-sensing knowledge and its applications to Earth observation. The Department currently benefits from the Canada Research Chair in Terrestrial Observation and Phytoplankton Ecophysiology. In addition, the Department has three laboratories (environmental analysis, spectroradiometry, and image processing and GIS) as well as an environmental-research station (Site Interdisciplinaire de Recherche en Environnement Extérieur or SIRÈNE [interdisciplinary research site on the exterior environment]). The Department also brings together renowned specialists in a variety of fields of application such as terrestrial (e.g.,: forestry and biology) and marine (e.g.,: oceanography) ecosystems; the atmosphere (e.g.,: physics and mathematics; water and snow (e.g.,: climatology); urban environment (e.g.,: geography, transportation, and land-use planning); and environmental risks (e.g.,: geomatics and topography). Some research projects are paired with internships and/or international activities. The Department of Applied Geomatics is comprehensively designed to allow students to embark on specialization, expand their knowledge, and develop research skills.
