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.

Continued development of semi-autonomous obstacle avoidance drone for underground mining

Agreement Number:

910232

Duration: from Jul 9, 2018 to Feb 28, 2019
Description:

As we move to transform the mining industry with applied drone Technology we are building on the base platform of our DB2 unit to create a DB3 unit that has the ability to support the pilot with recognize environments and avoid collisions. Our current unit in operation supports imaging and 360 degree LiDAR. Our Project goal is to increase "flight support" and decrease the needed skill level of the pilot. This will make the technology more accessible to a broader group of operational staff, reduce the risk of loss during flight and increase the success rate in complex flight plans. Over all the project will create a product that has more applications underground and is easier to use.
