Surficial Geology Polygons (1:50k)

Surficial Geology Polygons (1:50k) This GIS dataset is a Yukon-wide compilation of surficial geology polygons derived from 75 published and unpublished 1:50,000 surficial geology maps produced by the GSC, Yukon Geological Survey and various universities. All polygon map unit labels have been converted to standardized map unit labels, based on the British Columbia terrain classification system. Standardized attributes include: surficial material, texture, age, surface expression and geomorphological processes. 2024-07-31 Government of Yukon panya.lipovsky@gov.yk.ca Form DescriptorsNature and EnvironmentScience and TechnologyYukon Geological SurveyGovernment information PDF (YGS source maps only)HTML https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/ PDF (GSC source maps only)HTML http://geoscan.ess.nrcan.gc.ca/starweb/geoscan/servlet.starweb?path=geoscan/geoscan_e.web Original metadata (https://open.yukon.ca)HTML https://open.yukon.ca/data/datasets/surficial-geology-polygons-150k Polygon Attribute MetadataXLS http://ygsftp.gov.yk.ca/YGSIDS/compilations/Surficial_2014_04_08/Yukon_surficial_polygon_attributes.xls Terrain Classification System CodesXLS http://ygsftp.gov.yk.ca/YGSIDS/compilations/Surficial_2014_04_08/Yukon_surficial_geol_codes.xls GeodatabaseZIP http://ygsftp.gov.yk.ca/YGSIDS/compilations/Surficial_2014_04_08/50k/surficial_polygons_compilation_50k.gdb_2014_04_08.zip Google Earth (kmz)ZIP http://ygsftp.gov.yk.ca/YGSIDS/compilations/Surficial_2014_04_08/50k/surficial_compilation_50k_2014_04_08.zip ShapefileZIP http://ygsftp.gov.yk.ca/YGSIDS/compilations/Surficial_2014_04_08/50k/surficial_polygons_compilation_50k.shp_2014_06_16.zip Yukon Digital Surficial Geology Compilation Infoother https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/compilation/downloadproduct/39355 Yukon Terrain Classification Keyother https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/compilation/downloadproduct/39351
