Watersheds - 1M

Watersheds - 1M The Drainage Areas dataset is largely based on the Water Survey of Canada (WSC) drainage area boundaries at the sub-sub-basin level. The data model supports the derivation, from the Fundamental Drainage Areas dataset (sub-sub-basin level), of the WSC and Atlas of Canada drainage area hierarchies and the data is available in all three schemes. Drainage area definitions for both WSC and Atlas of Canada boundaries were reviewed resulting in some modifications. Larger scale reference data sources were used for further manual boundary adjustments. This dataset has been integrated with other National Scale Frameworks hydrology datasets and is considered a component of the Hydrology Theme (see Supplemental Information for more details about the Atlas of Canada National Frameworks data at the 1:1,000,000 scale). 2022-03-29 Government of Yukon geomatics.help@gov.yk.ca Form DescriptorsNature and EnvironmentScience and TechnologyY.T.YukonYukon TerritoryBasinsHydrographydrainageDrainage SystemWatershedDownloadable DataGovernment information ISO 19139 Geographic Information - MetadataHTML https://geoweb.gov.yk.ca/geoportal/catalog/search/resource/details.page?uuid=%7B008810FF-FCEE-43FA-8288-5357A49C3D2D%7D Original metadata (https://open.yukon.ca)HTML https://open.yukon.ca/data/datasets/watersheds-1m ISO 19139 Geographic Information - MetadataXML https://geoweb.gov.yk.ca/geoportal/rest/document?id=%7B008810FF-FCEE-43FA-8288-5357A49C3D2D%7D FTP Directoryother https://map-data.service.yukon.ca/GeoYukon/Biophysical/Watersheds_1M/
