Abstract: This grid dataset is part of the three-dimensional (3-D) hydrostratigraphic model of the Sylvan Lake sub-basin in the Edmonton-Calgary Corridor, central Alberta. It represents the structure top of the Paskapoo Formation, which is the bedrock surface in the Sylvan Lake sub-basin. The Paskapoo Formation is a highly heterogeneous system. To satisfy the needs of a groundwater flow model, internal characterization of rock properties was necessary to partition the formation into three distinct geological domains. The Upper Composite Slice is the uppermost of these three domains. Alberta Geological Survey (AGS) Open File Report 2014-10 includes a full description of the process used to produce this structure grid.

The vertical accuracy is dependent upon the location, well-log data density and geological horizon. The grid aims to capture 5 to 15 m scale offsets. For integration into the Sylvan Lake sub-basin 3-D hydrostratigraphic model the bedrock topography grid was clipped to the Sylvan Lake sub-basin model domain and re-interpolated in RockWorks15. The elevation difference between the original and re-interpolated bedrock topography grid is negligible.

This grid is complete in the Sylvan Lake sub-basin and used available data as of 2010. Process step: Process step: Description: The methodology used to create this grid dataset is fully documented in AGS Open File Report 2014-10. Deterministic Grid Alteration Information: In the Sylvan Lake sub-basin the bedrock topography grid represents the top of the Paskapoo Formation - Upper Composite Slice. The bedrock topography grid (500 m cell-size) from DIG 2010-0037 was resampled to a 400 m cell-size grid (i.e., the specified cell-size for the multi-layer hydrostratigraphic model) and clipped to the Sylvan Lake sub-basin model domain. Geographic coordinates (x,y) as well as elevation data (z) were sampled at each evenly-space grid node in ArcMap and exported into RockWorks15 for integration into the full hydrostratigraphic model. Algorithm used to interpolate data points: The top of the Paskapoo Formation - Upper Composite Slice was re-interpolated in RockWorks15 at a 400 m cell-size node spacing using 'closest point' whereby a grid node is set equal to the value of the nearest data point. Modelling constraints applied: Limited manual manipulation of grids was performed. The Paskapoo Formation - Upper Composite Slice was constrained to the land surface using the 25 m Provincial Digital Elevation Model.
