This feature displays annotation codes for easy display of vegetation inventory polygons. Used in conjunction with the data set for Vegetation Inventory Poly 40K, this dataset shows labels describing the contents of each forest inventory polygon. The annotation is at a fixed scale, and is...

This GIS dataset is a Yukon-wide compilation of surficial geology lines derived from 75 published and unpublished 1:50,000 surficial geology maps produced by the GSC, Yukon Geological Survey and various universities. Surficial geology line features captured in this compilation include: surficial...

Airborne electromagnetic/magnetic survey data were acquired for the area between April 17 and April 30, 2015. The aircraft flight elevation was maintained at a nominal ground clearance of 83 m. Aircraft navigation used a 12-channel NovaTel dual frequency GPS. A vertically mounted video camera was...

This site provides an overview of research facilities in Yukon government that Yukon manages and/or provides funding or in-kind support to nine research facilities in Yukon. Government of Yukon's research facilities joined the Canadian Network of No

This high sensitivity aeromagnetic survey was carried out by Goldak Airborne Surveys (Goldak) on behalf of the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) between January 25th and March 26th, 2011. Aircraft equipment operated included three cesium vapour magnetometers, a GPS real-time and post-corrected...

The proposed Kusawa Special Management Area (SMA) consists of 3118.6 km2 in southwest Yukon. A map notation in 1972 denoting Kusawa Lake and the surrounding area as a possible park planning area is included in the proposed Kusawa Special Management Area (SMA). This has discouraged mineral...

The well registry is a collection of records, including drilling logs and report documents, maintained by Yukon G overnment. These records provide information on the well construction details and subsurface conditions encountered at the time of drilling. Although some information in the dataset...

This map of the first vertical derivative of the magnetic field was derived from data acquired during an aeromagnetic survey carried out by EON Geosciences Inc. in the period between April 10, 2009 and September 16, 2009. The data were recorded using split-beam cesium vapour magnetometers...

This Shaded Relief Image has a resolution of 500 meters and was derived from the United States Geological Survey "30 Arc-second Digital Elevation Model". Distributed from GeoYukon by the Government of Yukon . Discover more digital map data and interactive maps from Yukon's digital map data...

This map of the residual total magnetic field was derived from data acquired during an aeromagnetic survey carried out by Goldak Airborne Surveys during the period May 16, 2009 to July 1, 2009. The data were recorded using a split-beam cesium vapour magnetometer mounted in the tail boom of a...

Geotechnical reports are indexed within a database maintained by HPW-TEB Geotechnical Unit. Meta data associated to each geotechnical report are captured within this indexing table, including report reference number, title, author, highway and km start and end. The table has been modified to...

This layer is part of the Geological Survey of Canada's earthquake monitoring network. There are some blank fields toward the beginning of the listing, from the time the network was being installed and hence parameters were often unknown. Also, all depths in the table are "fixed" to a depth which...

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...

Historic placer mining areas in Yukon can be grouped into ten areas: Klondike; Sixtymile; Fortymile; Clear Creek; Moosehorn Range; Stewart River; Whitehorse South; Mayo; Dawson Range and Livingstone Creek. Each area has its own geomorphic setting and depositional history which is related to its...

This image service contains high resolution satellite imagery for selected regions throughout the Yukon. Imagery is 1m pixel resolution, or better. Imagery was supplied by the Government of Yukon, and the Canadian Department of National Defense. All the imagery in this service is licensed. If you...

Temperature data (typically in time series format) comes from investigations performed by government agencies, geotechnical engineers and consultants, academics, and others to obtain information on the air or ground thermal conditions of a site. Ground temperature investigations generally include...
