摘要：The Canadian Ice Service (CIS) of Environment Canada is responsible for providing sea ice and iceberg information under the Canadian Federal Ice Program. The mandate of the Canadian Ice Service is to provide timely information on ice conditions for navigational purposes, to warn marine operators of hazardous ice conditions, and to maintain a general historic knowledge of ice conditions and ice climatology. This paper presents the mission-critical application of Remote Sensing and GIS technology in the Canadian Ice Service for supporting the marine community. The products are generated on a daily basis and products turnaround time is 24 hours. A typical day for our operation involves the real-time data acquisition, processing, and analysis of remotely sensed geographic data; the integration of vector, raster, and alphanumeric information; generation and dissemination of text, chart, image and spatially enabled products to clients and partners; clients making their decisions based on the information received from CIS. All products are deposited in a central repository and are made available to the public and partners via a geo-spatial web service
