The Site / Structure Addresses layer represents the location of a site, or structure, or the location of access for the site, or structure, for the City of Whitehorse. Site / Structure addresses may also represent landmarks. Address points have the ability to locate sites that otherwise may not geocode correctly using the road centreline data, areas of unusual addressing, and other areas where the data is available. 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 .

The Municipal Boundary layer defines the boundary of the City of Whitehorse which has local governmental powers and may be useful in determining jurisdictional authority for addressing and emergency response.

The Fire Response Boundary layer defines the geographic area for the primary providers of response services. This layer is used by the ECRF (Emergency Call Routing Function) to perform a geographic query to determine which Emergency Service Providers are responsible for providing service to a location in the event a selective transfer is desired, to direct an Emergency Incident Data Document to a secondary PSAP (Public Safety Answering Point) for dispatch, or to display the responsible agencies at the PSAP. In addition, Emergency Services Boundaries are used by PSAPs to identify the appropriate entities / first responders to be dispatched. 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 .

The Subdivision layer is the boundary of a neighbourhood, subdivision, or commercial area within the City of Whitehorse. Locations of similar sounding street names may be resolved when the neighbourhood name is known. Data was modeled using the NENA NG9-1-1 GIS Data Template (NENA-REF-006. 2 -202 2 ).

The Yukon government amended the Quartz Mining Act and the Placer Mining Actin December 2013, to establish the authority to designate areas where government notification of Class 1 exploration activities is required. Before these amendments to the mining acts and regulation came into effect, prospectors undertaking Class 1 activities were not required to inform government of their work. Class 1 exploration activities generally have low potential to cause adverse environmental effects. A Notification is required if an exploration program is categorized as class 1 (OIC 2003/59 and OIC 2003/64) and located either on settlement land (category A or B) or within a class 1 notification area (OIC 2013/221). This layer show current class 1 exploration program that are allowed to proceed. Distributed from GeoYukon by the Government of Yukon .

The Provisioning Boundary layer defines the area of GIS data provisioning for the City of Whitehorse. This boundary must be agreed to by all adjoining data provisioning providers. When provisioning data for an ECRF (Emergency Call Routing Function) and LVF (Location Validation Function) the City of Whitehorse must only include GIS data for their geographic area of responsibility and must ensure the data includes coverage for the entire extent of that area. 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 .
