- 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.
