  • A Comprehensive Guide to the Alberta Oil Sands
    A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO THE ALBERTA OIL SANDS UNDERSTANDING THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND HUMAN IMPACTS , EXPORT IMPLICATIONS , AND POLITICAL , ECONOMIC , AND INDUSTRY INFLUENCES Michelle Mech May 2011 (LAST REVISED MARCH 2012) A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO THE ALBERTA OIL SANDS UNDERSTANDING THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND HUMAN IMPACTS , EXPORT IMPLICATIONS , AND POLITICAL , ECONOMIC , AND INDUSTRY INFLUENCES ABOUT THIS REPORT Just as an oil slick can spread far from its source, the implications of Oil Sands production have far reaching effects. Many people only read or hear about isolated aspects of these implications. Media stories often provide only a ‘window’ of information on one specific event and detailed reports commonly center around one particular facet. This paper brings together major points from a vast selection of reports, studies and research papers, books, documentaries, articles, and fact sheets relating to the Alberta Oil Sands. It is not inclusive. The objective of this document is to present sufficient information on the primary factors and repercussions involved with Oil Sands production and export so as to provide the reader with an overall picture of the scope and implications of Oil Sands current production and potential future development, without perusing vast volumes of publications. The content presents both basic facts, and those that would supplement a general knowledge base of the Oil Sands and this document can be utilized wholly or in part, to gain or complement a perspective of one or more particular aspect(s) associated with the Oil Sands. The substantial range of Oil Sands- related topics is covered in brevity in the summary. This paper discusses environmental, resource, and health concerns, reclamation, viable alternatives, crude oil pipelines, and carbon capture and storage.

  • Dinosaur Tracks in the Grande Cache Area
    TOURISM OPPORTUNITY ANALYSIS: DINOSAUR TRACKS IN THE GRANDE CACHE AREA Presented to Alberta Economic Development By Strategy Plus 9608 – 100 Street Edmonton, Alberta T5K 0T6 In Association with: IRIS Environmental Systems Banff and Calgary Insight Research Solutions Inc. Edmonton Richard T. McCrea Edmonton March 2001 Strategy Plus March 2001 Tourism Opportunity Analysis: Dinosaur Tracks In the Grande Cache Area ________________________________________________________________________________ EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Several sites of dinosaur footprints and trackways have been exposed on provincial Crown lands near the Town of Grande Cache in northwest Alberta, in an area that was formerly part of a coal mine operated by Smoky River Coal Ltd. (SRCL). While no dispositions or mining leases currently exist on the track sites, coal mining applications will be considered in the area over the next few years. The purpose of this study, commissioned by Alberta Economic Development, is twofold: 1. To determine the capacity of the dinosaur tracks and related palaeontological resources within the Grande Cache region to be developed as marketable tourism products, and 2. If capacity exists to develop the resource as a marketable tourist attraction, to develop an implementation plan for use by interested parties in Grande Cache to pursue development of tourism products and programs related to the dinosaur footprints and trackways. The study involved several components, including: an assessment of the scientific significance of the track sites; a survey of other sites to determine their best practices; a review and assessment of resource protection, management and access considerations; an inventory and assessment of existing tourism in the area; and an assessment of the tourism potential of the track sites based in part on the experiences of other sites.

A common practice to acquire this data is through roadside sensors. This approach is expensive because of infrastructure and planning costs and cannot be easily applied to new routes. A Web mining approach is proposed to address these limitations. The proposed system gathers information about vehicle commute times, accidents, and weather reports from heterogeneous Web sources.
