Abstract: All available bathymetry and related information for Watt Lake were collected and hard copy maps digitized where necessary. The data were validated against more recent data (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission 'SRTM' imagery and Indian Remote Sensing 'IRS' imagery) and corrected where necessary. The published data set contains the lake bathymetry formatted as an Arc ascii grid. Bathymetric contours and the boundary polygon are available as shapefiles.

Abstract:
All available bathymetry and related information for Watt Lake were collected and hard copy maps digitized
where necessary. The data were validated against more recent data (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission 'SRTM'
imagery and Indian Remote Sensing 'IRS' imagery) and corrected where necessary. The published data set
contains the lake bathymetry formatted as an Arc ascii grid. Bathymetric contours and the boundary polygon
are available as shapefiles.
Purpose:
This dataset was created to preserve historical data for Watt Lake and to make the data available in digital
form.

Alberta Environment and the Alberta Geological Survey for supporting the project; GISmo Solutions Ltd. for
creating the digital product from the hard copy maps and other data sources.

Description:
Digital elevation models (DEMs) were created from the bathymetry contours generated for this lake (see
cross-references for companion datasets to this file). Grids were created with a 50 m cell size in
ArcInfo software then exported to ascii format for distribution.
