Dear participants welcome to beautiful Gatineau-Ottawa region. It is an honour and a privilege for me to serve as Chairman of the 2022 Canadian Hydrographic Conference (CHC2022). CHC is the biennial conference hosted by the Canadian Hydrographic Association (CHA). It is the premier hydrographic conference in North America, alternating yearly with the US Hydrographic Conference of The Hydrographic Society of America (THSOA), a friend and a partner.
