Land Tenure for the Yukon Mining and Lands viewers

Created for distribution by the GeoYukon application as a comprehensive resource for all publicly available Mining information in the Government of Yukon. This data may be used directly by other applications to dynamically display Yukon data; however, it may be subject to change as data sets are updated or added.

This dataset consists of the provincial dry lands which are delineated by the international boundary, the interprovincial boundaries and the coast line. It was generated from data provided by the International Boundary Commission (IBC) and from various Service New Brunswick databases.

The Copernicus High Resolution Layer Tree Cover Precense Change (TCPC) 2018-2021 raster product provides information on the change between the reference years 2018 and 2021 and consists of 4 thematic classes (unchanged areas with no tree cover / new tree cover / loss of tree cover / unchanged areas with tree cover). The class 255 = outside area is predefined by the 100m boundary layer and remains unchanged. This layer for previous reference year compraissions is called Tree Cover Change Mask (TCCM). This dataset is provided in 20 meter rasters (fully conformant with the EEA reference grid) in 100 x 100 km tiles covering the EEA38 countries. The production of the high resolution forest layers was coordinated by the European Environment Agency (EEA) in the frame of the EU Copernicus programme. Confidence layer available for the dataset. This dataset includes data from the French Overseas Territories (DOMs)

Land under administration and control of Government of Yukon and disposed of by the Department of Energy, Mines and Resources (EMR), Land Management Branch in the form of active licences of occupation. A licence grants permission to do something which without the licence would not be allowable. Land Management Branch licences typically permit the construction and maintenance of power, telephone, water or sewer utilities on Commissioner's land. Licences of occupation are linear in nature and often extend long distances, hence the requirement for a separate feature class.

The Aboriginal Lands dataset consists of polygon entities that depict the administrative boundaries (extent) of lands where the title has been vested in specific Aboriginal Groups of Canada or lands which were set aside for their exclusive benefit.

Land Features entities are: Island, Shoreline, Wooded Area, Saturated soil, Landform Feature (esker, sand\...), and Cut Line. CanVec is a digital cartographic reference product of Natural Resources Canada (NRCan). It originates from the best available data sources covering Canadian territory, offers quality topographical information in vector format, and complies with international geomatics standards. CanVec is a multi-source product coming mainly from the National Topographic Data Base (NTDB), the Mapping the North process conducted by the Canada Center for Mapping and Earth Observation (CCMEO), the Atlas of Canada data, the GeoBase initiative, and the data update using satellite imagery coverage (e.g. Landsat 7, Spot, Radarsat, etc.).

The High Resolution Layer Tree Cover Density (TCD) dataset provides information on the proportional crown coverage per pixel at 10 meter spatial resolution and ranges from 0% (all non-tree covered areas) to 100%, whereby Tree Cover Density is defined as the "vertical projection of tree crowns to a horizontal earth’s surface“. This dataset is provided annually starting with 2018 in 10 meter rasters (fully conformant with the EEA reference grid) in 100 x 100 km tiles covering the EEA38 countries. High Resolution Layer Tree Cover and Forest product is part of the European Union’s Copernicus Land Monitoring Service. Confidence layer available for the dataset. This dataset includes data from the French Overseas Territories (DOMs).
