This grid represents the distribution of total dissolved solids (TDS) in the Exshaw–Banff hydrostratigraphic unit (HSU). It is a result of a geostatistical model which was constructed using publicly available data from formation water chemistry data from drillstem tests (DST) and production fluids from oil and gas wells.   

The distribution of TDS was mapped at a regional scale using many years of data, thus providing a good indication of regional water chemistry within the unit rather than site-specific values.
