Abstract
 

This dataset is part of the regional hydrogeological characterization of the Upper Cretaceous–Quaternary units in the Fox Creek area of west-central Alberta. It contains tabular hydraulic head data used to generate a potentiometric surface of the uppermost bedrock units in the study area. The source data are groundwater levels from Alberta Environment and Parks' Alberta Water Well Information Database (AWWID) and elevations of several rivers within the study area that have incised the uppermost bedrock units. Data have been processed, relevant records selected, and outliers removed to compile this dataset.
