đź“Ť Important Information about Canada Coverage
Geo-Surface Canadian Editions use CanElevation Series digital elevation models (DEMs) from Natural Resources Canada. Your elevation data is sourced from one of two datasets:
✅ 📍 High-Resolution DEM (HRDEM) – LiDAR-based, delivering highly accurate elevation and flow mapping.
⚠️ 📍 Medium-Resolution DEM (MRDEM) – Coarser data, suitable for basic elevation viewing but lacks advanced features.
🔹 Does Your Region Have LiDAR?
Only areas covered by HRDEM have LiDAR available. If your region is not covered, you will NOT be able to:
đźš« Generate high-resolution 3D terrain overlays
đźš« Compute detailed water flow routes
❗ Important: We do NOT recommend purchasing a Geo-Surface membership if your region lacks HRDEM coverage—unless you plan to import your own elevation data.

🌎 Geo-Surface: Powerful, Affordable, and Built for Farmers
While Geo-Surface tools may seem simple to use (by design!), they are powered by advanced technology—processing high-resolution LiDAR, computing flow maps, and enabling full drainage design right in your browser. This requires ongoing updates, server infrastructure, and data hosting, which is why Explorer and Designer are offered as annual memberships instead of a one-time cost.
🚀 Why a Membership Model?
đź’° Transparent, Sustainable Pricing
- Geo-Surface Explorer – $349 for the first year, renews at $199/year
- Geo-Surface Designer – $499 for the first year, renews at $299/year
This pricing structure ensures long-term sustainability, continuous improvements, and a high-performance experience as demand grows.
🔄 Why No Monthly Plans?
Many users have asked about monthly subscriptions, but here’s the reality:
- Users would sign up, heavily use the system for one month, download all their flow maps, and leave.
- This drives high computing costs and creates performance issues for all members.
- Instead, annual memberships provide the flexibility to plan at your own pace, revisit designs, and access tools when you need them—whether at your desk or in the field.
- The discounted renewal rate ensures affordable ongoing access, even if your usage decreases. You’ll always have these powerful tools and insights at your fingertips—ready when you need them, whether for new projects, adjustments, or field reference. 🚜🔍
🎯 The Best Value in Drainage Design
Most desktop drainage software costs $3,000+ upfront, with recurring fees and a steep learning curve. Many farmers still rely on drone or RTK surveys just to get usable data, with consulting fees adding up to $5–$10 per acre—easily $10,000+ for a 2,000-acre farm.
💡 With Geo-Surface Designer, you get high-resolution elevation data and full drainage design capabilities for just a fraction of the cost—without expensive hardware, consultants, or complex software.
🔓 Smart, affordable, and built for farmers. Get started today! 🚜
