The Canadian Hydrographic Service operates a Quality Management System certified ISO9001:2000 to ensure the provision of hydrographic information necessary to ensure safe and efficient navigation in Canadian waters while increasing knowledge of these waters for scientific research, security and sovereignty. These services are provided in a cost-effective, efficient and responsible manner.
