"The present study comprises one of a number of studies whose general objective is to assist DCC in costing various potential communication systems to serve rural Canada. This study is concerned with the distribution of households in the rural portion of the prairie provinces and specifically its objective is to determine typical cells representing the household distribution in large regions of the prairies. A typical cell is defined as a small, a real unit with a household distribution identical to that of a large region. The study established nine regions in the prairies and nine typical cells representative of each. The regions and the cells were determined from secondary sources which included maps at a variety of scales, aerial photographs, atlases, reports and general literature pertaining to the historical and current development of the prairie provinces"--Executive Summary.
