Description:
Abstract:
This dataset maps the thickness of the Lacombe aquitard as defined by outputs of a 3-D model of sandiness in the Paskapoo Formation. The Lacombe aquitard consists of >65% non-sandy material in stacked, 25 m thick slices above the base of the Paskapoo Formation.
Purpose:
To map the thickness of the Lacombe aquitard as defined by outputs of a 3-D model of sandiness in the Paskapoo Formation.

Data Quality Information:
Attribute Accuracy:
Attribute Accuracy Report:
Modelled isopach attributes have an inherent inaccuracy regarding the geospatial information of individual data sources (boreholes).
Logical Consistency Report:
There are no duplicate locations because all data values were assigned x-y locations by the modelling software. The grid resolution is 500 m. Null data are coded '-9999'. Isopach values cannot be less than '0'.
Completeness Report:
Refer to Alberta Geological Survey Bulletin 66 to read the selection criteria used to create this dataset.
Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report:
The modelling software assigned the horizontal coordinates of the isopach value to the centre of the 500 m sized grid cells.
Vertical Positional Accuracy:
Vertical Positional Accuracy Report:
Vertical accuracy is only valid within a 25 m vertical range. Isopach values represent the cumulative sum of 25 m spaced model cell values in which sand abundance values were consecutively less than 35%.
Lineage:
Process Step:
Process Description:
We modelled the sandiness and muddiness distributions, thicknesses, and geometries from analyses of water-well litholog and oil and gas gamma-ray log datasets. The data represent the amalgamated thickness values of >65% non-sandy material from 25 m thick slices constructed parallel to the base of the Paskapoo Formation in a 3-D block model.
