The Yukon Geological Survey (YGS) has compiled over 195 surficial geology maps into a standardized GIS format, providing approximately 80% coverage of the territory. The maps range in scales from 1:250,000 to 1:10,000 with spatial overlap between scales. The original maps were produced by various...

New geochemical data from re-analysis of archived stream sediment samples have been assessed using weighted sums modeling and catchment basin analysis as described in the methodology report that accompanies this map (YGS Open File 2015-10). Both commodity and pathfinder element abundances are...

This feature delineates forest and vegetation stands in the Yukon at a scale of 1:5,000. It is an operational level forest inventory (as opposed to a management level). This inventory has been completed in various stages, between 2013 and 2014, and delineation via softcopy from stereo images...

This dataset is populated and maintained b y the Minerals Branch of Yukon Geological Survey. The collect and compile yearly highlights of mining and exploration activity in Yukon. For questions related to the dataset, please contact geology@yukon.ca . *A project size is defined as large / small...

Geotechnical data comes from investigations performed by geotechnical engineers to obtain information on the physical properties of soil and rock underlying a site for proposed structures. The investigations include surface exploration and subsurface exploration of a site. In addition, site...

This annotation displays air photo centre point numbers. The associated air photos from these flight lines are used in the interpretation of the Forest Inventory polygon feature. The annotation is at a fixed scale, and is designed to be optimally displayed at a 1:50,000 scale.

A wide range of different territorial, federal, and first nation governments have a role in monitoring water. The water monitoring sites data set compiles these varied sources into a single source with the intent to provide a 'one-stop shop' when searching for water monitoring data. Information...
