Geoscape Calgary
  Next (Introduction)

The Geoscape Calgary poster uses over 30 diagrams, maps, and pictures in an attractive and colourful presentation of Earth materials and processes that have shaped Calgary's geological landscape, or Geoscape.

This product is intended not only to explain geological phenomena, but also to illustrate why we need an understanding of our geological landscape to make sustainable land-use decisions for Calgary's growing population.

Teachers who develop modules for their classes are encouraged to submit material to Terry Poulton for inclusion on this website, for use by others.
