Benchmarks In Canada

[+bobbarley]

With some research and signing up on the geomatics canada website I can find benchmark descriptions for those around my town. I was wondering if anyone knows if Canada has the same reporting or tracking system as I see for US benchmarks listed on the GC website? Can I log or report their condition anywhere?

Yes, you can report on them here.

Thanks for the redirect, I don't often come in here.

I am aware of the waywarking site and section. Will Geomatics Canada use this info to track destroyed stations and improve scaled measurements? Or are we just posting a bazillion logs and pictures for naught?

I am hoping for a system more like the states where finding and logging uninteresting benchmarks serves some purpose.

Unfortunately, at this time the information between Waymarking and Geomatics Canada are not being shared/combined. Of course I'm hoping that at some point in the future this will be the case. I've asked about it, but so far I have not received a response as to if and when this might happen.
