Abstract
These data comprise the polygon features of Alberta Geological Survey Map 582, Surficial Geology of West-Central Alberta, and are based on a compilation of previously published 1:100 000 scale surficial geology maps in NTS 83K, and new light detection and ranging (LiDAR) mapping based on 2015 field work conducted in NTS 83E, 83F, 83G, 83J and 83L.
The data were created in geodatabase format and output for public distribution in shapefile format.
