A Surveyed Sub-Surface Area Object that represents the spatial extent of a mineral claim to which sub-surface rights can be registered. In the Yukon, mineral claims can be classified as Quartz or Placer Claims, where as in other regions they are generically called mineral claims Distributed from...

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...

Landscape hazard maps were completed as part of a community hazards mapping program coordinated by the Northern Climate ExChange (Yukon Research Centre, Yukon College). Potential landscape hazards were assessed under changing future conditions by incorporating a variety of data sets, including...

This is point GIS coverage consisting of either fire ignition locations or centroids of fire polygons where the exact location of fire ignition were unknown for fires within the Yukon, spanning a period from 1946 to present. Although the temporal scale of the coverage goes back to late 1940's,...

The Community Roads Names dataset was created to enable road labeling for Yukon Communities. Roads in the communities are mapped and the road names are attributed to allow labeling. The only communities included in the dataset are: Whitehorse and Dawson City. Distributed from GeoYukon by the...

The purpose of this feature class is to identify those areas that are in the process of Timber Harvest Planning, process being a continuum from proposed plan through to approval and eventually plan expiration. Subsection 20(3) of the Forest Resources Act establishes that an approved Timber...

Electoral districts as defined by the "Electoral Districts Boundaries Act" (SY 2008, c. 14) as amended. The linework was created by interpreting the "Electoral Districts Boundaries Act" (SY 2008, c. 14) using thethe 1:50 000 scale national topographic database data (NTDB), National Road Network...

The boundaries are established from either Land Claims Final Agreement, Self Government Agreement, Memorandum of Understanding, Local Advisory Area, or from a signed document between Yukon Government and First Nation. An Order in Council is prepared and the new boundary comes into effect. Older...

This is the Grid Area portion of the Oil and Gas Land Division System. This is a grid system consisting of three sections, Area, Section and Unit used to describe Yukon Oil and Gas Dispositions, Leases and Licences. A Grid area shall be bounded on the east and west sides by successive meridians...

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 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...

The Roads layer delineates the estimated centreline of the roads within the City of Whitehorse. Data was modeled using the NENA NG9-1-1 GIS Data Template (NENA-REF-006. 2 -202 2 ). Distributed from GeoYukon by the Government of Yukon . Discover more digital map data and interactive maps from...

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...
