Abstract
Sea ice distribution, sea surface temperature contouring, and Iceberg/Ocean Vessel Detection and Identification have been identified as areas of immediate concern to marine activities off the Canadian East Coast. These are areas, also, in which LANDSAT and NOAA data from the Shoe Cove Satellite Receiving Station have been investigated and found both useful and operational with respect to providing data to users. The Satellite Ocean-Related Imagery Applications Program allowed the demonstration of this transfer of satellite technology to ocean interests.
