Abstract: In 2014, the Alberta Energy Regulator (AER) initiated a Play-Based Regulation (PBR) pilot project as a step towards implementation of the Unconventional Regulatory Framework. One of the goals of the PBR pilot is to encourage companies in the unconventional play area to work together on plans for surface development to minimize the numbers of facilities and surface impacts. This data set is one of a series created using earth observation imagery to assess surface change caused by energy exploration. The PBR area extends from Twp. 52, Rge. 7, W 5th Mer. to Twp. 70, Rge. 5, W 6th Mer., covering the towns of Edson, Fox Creek, Mayerthorpe, Whitecourt, Swan Hills, and Valleyview. This quality evaluation dataset was produced for 2010 Landsat data to identify possible misclassified areas due to sensor noise, cloud, haze, and cloud shadow. These areas are assigned to ‘bad pixels’ or value ‘1’ in the quality evaluation dataset.

Abstract:
In 2014, the Alberta Energy Regulator (AER) initiated a Play-Based Regulation (PBR) pilot project as a step
towards implementation of the Unconventional Regulatory Framework. One of the goals of the PBR pilot is to
encourage companies in the unconventional play area to work together on plans for surface development to
minimize the numbers of facilities and surface impacts. This data set is one of a series created using earth
observation imagery to assess surface change caused by energy exploration. The PBR area extends from Twp.
52, Rge. 7, W 5th Mer. to Twp. 70, Rge. 5, W 6th Mer., covering the towns of Edson, Fox Creek, Mayerthorpe,
Whitecourt, Swan Hills, and Valleyview. This quality evaluation dataset was produced for 2010 Landsat data
to identify possible misclassified areas due to sensor noise, cloud, haze, and cloud shadow. These areas are
assigned to ‘bad pixels’ or value ‘1’ in the quality evaluation dataset.
Purpose:
To show areas of the PBR pilot project where 2010 Landsat imagery data contained thin cloud/haze, cloud
shadow, and noise that might affect land use change classification.
