Yukon Digital Geology (version 2)

Yukon Digital Geology presents a variety of geoscience data sets in digital format on the geology of Yukon. Included are syntheses of bedrock geology and glacial limits, compilations of geochronology, paleontology, mineral occurrences, oil and gas wells, and a compendium of aeromagnetic images. A subset of a public domain topographic data set (Digital Chart of the World, by ESRI, Inc.) is included for georeference purposes.

For ease of use, data sets are divided geographically into 45 map tiles corresponding to the National Topographic System (NTS) 1:250,000 quadrangles. Data sets spanning the entire Yukon are also included.

Each theme for all of the 45 map tiles is presented in two projections; an Albers Equal Area projection and UTM coordinate system. Vector data files are also presented in several different file formats (ArcInfo coverages; Interchange (*.e00), dBase (*.dbf), shapefiles (*.shp), and image data files are presented in band interleaved by line (*.bil), and tagged image file format (*.tif).
