Grants and Contributions

About this information

In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.

The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.

Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Live Satellite Video Streaming Beyond Visual Line Of Sight (BVLOS)

Agreement Number:

1009245

Duration: from Aug 14, 2023 to Mar 31, 2024
Description:

GMI is in a unique position to send live video data through their satellite terminals even with limited bandwidth. Network, data plans, cameras & applications must be specialized to work over a small bandwidth but cost benefits will be a game changer.

This project will bring live video streaming BVLOS to the aviation market. The complete solution requires;

  1. Integration and testing of camera hardware with the terminals.
  2. Integration, dev, and testing of specialized video compression software.
  3. Dev and testing of the G6 firmware to optimize the camera and video software.
  4. Dev and testing of GMI Certus billing system.
  5. Dev and testing of GMI mapping application (AXIS) to display live video.
