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.

Agreement:

Beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) inspection of critical infrastructures and superstructures using coordinated multiple unmanned aircraft systems (UAS)

Agreement Number:

979728

Duration: from Sep 3, 2021 to May 31, 2024
Description:

The goal of this Project is to enable UAS platforms such as drones to perform inspection, monitoring and modeling of the state of critical infrastructure and superstructures in the BVLOS (beyond visual line of sight) mode, safely from a remote location. This will involve developing a threat detection and collision avoidance system that will provide the critical capability for BVLOS navigation of multiple drones to and around an infrastructure / superstructure target. In addition, the Project will develop an AI-enabled computer vision and photogrammetry system to enable the development of high-precision inspection, mapping and automatic condition assessments. The Project will also develop the software tools required for defect/anomaly detection as a result of conducting scans of infrastructure / superstructure targets.
