Northern Quebec Photo Bank
The oblique photo bank of Northern Quebec is composed of georeferenced photos taken on board planes or helicopters during overflights carried out as part of the Northern Quebec ecological knowledge acquisition program of the “Plan Nord” economic, social and environmental development project. During these overflights, the personnel on board were equipped with high-resolution cameras linked to a satellite geolocation system (GPS). The photos thus obtained were used as control points to improve the various thematic maps. Note: For the purposes of disseminating this bank, the photos could be modified slightly to improve shooting. The georeferencing of photos on the map refers to the location of the plane or helicopter at the time the picture was taken.This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).
