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.

Information System Telemetry Logging Collection and Search Platform
914761
ThinkOn proposes to build a highly scalable, indexed and searchable repository that can anonomise data for enhanced privacy without removing the value from the data for future analysis. The solution we want to build will allow organizations to consolidate all logged data from dispersed data sets into one safe and secure environment.
When complete, this offering will allow data from any data source to be consolidated into a single source of truth that will be very secure, anonymous as required and fully searchable to provide a true single source of truth from which security and performance improvement analysis can be performed without the risk of privacy loss or misrepresentation.

Co-registration of Multi-Spectral Satellite Imagery
915023
The SkyWatch EarthCache platform aggregates the world’s satellite data and makes it available to everyone in a simple API. When comparing images and other observations from different providers, various factors make it difficult to accurately detect changes from one time period to the next. We will build a system to co-register images from multiple sources to increase order fulfillment and the quality/usability of the data delivered to our customers.
