Geodetic reference systems in Canada

Canadian Spatial Reference System Modernization

To help users prepare for the upcoming CSRS modernization, the Canadian Geodetic Survey is releasing a set of beta products and tools. This beta release includes the transformations between the current and future geometric reference systems, and a beta version of our desktop TRX application which can be used to test these transformations.

Access the geodetic data, tools and information you need for positioning activities, such as land surveying, engineering, water management and more. We designed them with surveyors, geoscientists, engineers and other professionals in mind.
