The disciplines of mapping and cartography have been, and continue to be, used to systematically erase Indigenous peoples from their lands while provide access to and information about those lands to settlers. This colonial legacy continues within the discipline of remote sensing, as scientists and governments use satellite imagery to extract information from Indigenous lands without consent. While many Indigenous governments and organizations have developed protocols to assert their rights to data sovereignty, including over environmental data, the distant nature of remote sensing paired with open-access availability of much satellite imagery can allow researchers to bypass these protocols and responsibilities. This systematic review aims to determine the current practices of engagement with Indigenous people and communities, found in publications using satellite remote sensing within so-called Canada. A total of 1,052 English-language satellite remote sensing papers based in Canada and published between 2016-2024 were identified using the GEOBASE index; after three rounds of scoping, 359 papers met the inclusion criteria and were evaluated. Papers were reviewed manually and categorized based on study region, discipline/domain, type of analysis, and the extent of engagement with Indigenous people(s) and data sovereignty. Preliminary results show differences in engagement may be influenced by the geographical scale and location of the study, as well as the specific domain of the study and the history of that domain to the processes of settler-colonialism in Canada. This work contributes to the current discourse of critical remote sensing, and may be used to inform future initiatives promoting respect for Indigenous sovereignty amongst remote sensing practitioners.
