The paper will highlight two trials undertaken in Saskatchewan to apply the new shuttle radar elevation data to a route location in a remote area and in the search for aggregate. The first part of the paper will describe how the shuttle elevation data and model were used in GIS software to assess alternative routes for a proposed new road in northern Saskatchewan where no access or survey information was yet available. The second part of the paper will describe how the shuttle elevation data and model were used in GIS software. GPS elevations from known delta deposits were used to re-establish water elevation of glacial lakes at the time gravel was being deposited into them, and then to identify potential areas to investigate for new gravel sources.
