What do I need to open your files?
What's the difference between the PDF and the zip file?
The PDF is strictly the report or map. If the report also has additional data, such spreadsheets or GIS files, those would be in the zip file.
Do you offer hardcopy versions of your maps and reports?
No. You can take your file to a print shop to get a hardcopy. In Edmonton, Riley's and Map Town can both print maps.
Where are the contours for the GIS data of the Atlas of Western Canada Sedimentary Basin?
We decided not to put the effort into re-editing and publishing these elements. Instead we chose to publish the grid data on which the contours were based because we thought these would be more flexible for people. The reasoning was that any surface software package or GIS can generate contours for a given grid, at whatever interval the user needs. You can find the grids here.
