AB_CSRS.DAC
This gridded difference file AB_CSRS.DAC will need to be renamed to AB_CSRS.gsb to run in some software suites. Formats identical, but AB file is provincial fit only. Can be taken as an approximate transformation NAD83 to WGS 84 - see code 1702.

Engineering survey, topographic mapping.
State law defines use of US survey feet. Federal definition is metric - see code 26992. For applications with an accuracy of better than 3ft, replaced by NAD83(HARN) / SPCS.
Cartesian 2D CS. Axes: easting, northing (X,Y). Orientations: east, north. UoM: ftUS.
