| Abstract | Open File 8838 is a publication of Interdepartmental Memorandum of Understanding (IMOU) 5170 between Natural Resources Canada (NRCAN), the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC), and Transport Canada
Innovation Centre (TC-IC). IMOU 5107 aims to gain new insight into slow-moving landslides and the influence of climate changes through testing conventional and emerging monitoring technologies along strategically important sections of the national
railway network in the Thompson River valley, British Columbia, and the Assiniboine River valley along the borders of Manitoba and Saskatchewan. The results of this research will be applicable to other sites in Canada, and elsewhere around the world
where slowmoving landslides and climate change are adversely affecting critical socio-economic infrastructure. |
| Summary | (Plain Language Summary, not published)
A new Interdepartmental Memorandum of Understanding (IMOU-5170) between Natural Resources Canada (NRCAN), the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC), and
Transport Canada Innovation Centre (TC-IC) is researching and developing landslide-monitoring technologies along strategically important sections of the national railway network in the Thompson River valley, British Columbia, and the Assiniboine
River valley along the borders of Manitoba and Saskatchewan. The results of this research will be applicable to other sites in Canada, and elsewhere around the world where vital railway (or other socioeconomic) infrastructure and operations are
potentially at risk from climate-driven landslides. |
