VIA-SAT DATA SYSTEMS INC. is a privately owned Canadian corporation operating in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It was established in June 1988 as a result of an employee privatization proposal to amalgamate various hydrometeorologic data collection programs at B.C. Hydro. Field activities are centred in British Columbia and extend into the Yukon.
VIA-SAT has also been involved in a climatologic network installation in Pakistan and a flood warning system in Nepal.

Overseas consulting projects are currently being pursued in Asia, Mexico, and South America.
Since 1990, VIA-SAT has expanded their client base, providing services to Independent Hydro Power Producers, municipalities, and mining companies. VIA-SAT has also formed strategic alliances with engineering consulting firms to provide data collection services.
