Canadian Arctic Stations

This map presents the network of Canadian Arctic stations, camps, and operational sites distributed across the northern territories and archipelago. It brings together permanent research stations, seasonal field camps, logistics hubs, and remote monitoring outposts that support scientific research, environmental observation, and northern operations.

Spanning regions from the Yukon and Northwest Territories to Nunavut and the High Arctic islands, the map highlights the geographic reach and isolation of these sites, many of which operate in extreme conditions and are accessible only during limited seasonal windows. The distribution of locations reflects key areas of scientific interest, including climate change, sea ice dynamics, biodiversity, and geophysical processes.

Together, these stations and camps form a critical infrastructure for Arctic research and presence, enabling long-term data collection, supporting expeditions, and contributing to a deeper understanding of rapidly changing polar environments.
