Geoselec (formerly known as La Géomathèque) is proud to be the Canadian leader in the scanning of historical aerial photographs and the management and distribution of all types of digital imagery.
Client-focused, our mission is to efficiently provide land management professionals and organisations with quality aerial imagery while aiming at preserving and making the data more accessible in the future.
Our services
We provide high-end scanning services of aerial imagery archived on films for many organisations. We also offer a full range of archives and collections management services (physical and digital). If the end-goal is providing more access, we operate a web-based solution for the discovery, display and distribution of this imagery to the public.

Our Marketplace and its Products
As a partner of the Quebec Government in the distribution of their aerial imagery, we offer high accuracy – high resolution aerial photographs in many formats and added-value products (e.g., orthophotos, georeference).
Visit our Marketplace to initiate a search and get some images from Quebec Government and other content providers (ex.: Nearmap).
Our philosophy
Expertise pertaining to historical film imagery is slowly disappearing. Preserving such data has become a present-day challenge and a matter of urgency. Here at Geoselec, we are committed to protecting and making available this important historical data.
This is why we always aim at preserving the maximum detail on every image while respecting allocated resources.
We are a specialized and dedicated team who value respect, mutual support, and who find pleasure in our work.
Geoselec - What’s in the name
All our efforts lead to the availability of aerial images, scanned & showcased in our marketplace, powered by our platform facilitating the geospatial selection of the content you need! We are Geoselec!
