With SmartICE deployed, the community can have expanded availability of the ice thickness monitoring service and details on-ice conditions longer during the ice season. This information is available in the form of sea-ice hazard maps at the community scale every 7-10 days, more often during shoulder seasons when ice conditions are more dynamic. The maps are validated through the observations, measurements and traditional knowledge of SmartICE operators. They are available to community members in print and through an online data portal.
expected_results_fr
Grâce à la mise en œuvre de SmartICE, la collectivité profite d’une plus grande disponibilité, et pour une plus longue période, des services de surveillance de l’épaisseur de la glace et de plus amples détails concernant les conditions sur la glace pendant la saison des glaces. Ces renseignements sont présentés sous forme de cartes montrant les dangers liés à la glace de mer à l’échelle de la collectivité, des cartes qui sont produites tous les sept à dix jours et plus souvent pendant les saisons intermédiaires où les conditions de la glace sont plus dynamiques. Les cartes sont validées par les observations, les mesures et le savoir traditionnel de nos opérateurs de SmartICE. Elles sont offertes aux membres de la collectivité en format imprimé et sur le portail de données en ligne.
