Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the PDF and the zip file?
The PDF is strictly the report or map. The zip files contains the full CD contents, which may include metadata, spreadsheets, GIS data, etc.

Is there a difference between the zip file and buying the CD from your office?
No. They are identical.

I'm having troubles downloading one of your files. Is there another way to get the information?
Yes, you can purchase the report from our Information Centre.

Do you offer hardcopy versions of your maps and reports?
Publications created since 2001 are only available in digital form. Older publications are usually only available in hardcopy unless they have been digitized. You can take your CD to a print shop to get a hardcopy. In Edmonton, Riley's and Map Town can both print maps.

What's the difference between your library and publication sales?
We only sell currently available AGS publications. Our library contains out-of-print publications, as well as non-AGS books of a geological nature. You can search our library catalogue through the NEOS library search page. Our library is open to the public from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday to Friday.
