Snow survey administrative basin areas, which are components of the BC snow survey network. Basin codes are used as basis of snow survey station names, and for some reporting purposes.
-
Manual snow survey (active & inactive) locations as part of the BC Snow Survey program.

Monthly snow cover extent (SCE) for Arctic land areas (>60° N) for (a) May and (b) June 1967–2020, a 54-year record. Anomalies are relative to the 1981–2010 average and standardised (each observation was differenced from the mean and divided by the standard deviation, and thus unitless). Solid black and red lines depict 5-year running means for North America and Eurasia, respectively. Filled circles are used to highlight 2020 anomalies. (Mudryk et al. 2020).

Locations of automated snow weather stations, active and inactive. Automated snow weather stations are components of the BC snow survey network.

A wide range of different territorial, federal, and first nation governments have a role in monitoring water. The water monitoring sites data set compiles these varied sources into a single source with the intent to provide a 'one-stop shop' when searching for water monitoring data. Information contained includes the 'who, what, when, and where' of water monitoring by providing contact information, sample type, sample period, and location. Distributed from [GeoYukon](https://yukon.ca/geoyukon) by the [Government of Yukon](https://yukon.ca/maps) .

The Copernicus Daily Cumulative Gap-filled Fractional Snow Cover (GFSC) product is generated in near real-time for the entire EEA38 and the United Kingdom, based on radar satellite data from the Sentinel-1 constellation and on optical data from the Sentinel-2 constellation. The product uses Copernicus FSC (Fractional Snow Cover), WDS (Wet/Dry Snow) and SWS (SAR Wet Snow) products along with DEM data as input to form a spatially complete composite of snow conditions, to reduce observational gaps due to clouds and lack of sensor coverage on a daily basis. The product provides the extent of the snow cover per pixel as a percentage (0% – 100%) with a spatial resolution of 60 m x 60 m. The GFSC product is distributed in raster files covering an area of 110 km by 110 km with a pixel size of 60 m by 60 m in UTM/WGS84 projection, which corresponds to the Sentinel-2 input L1C product tile. Each product is composed of four separate GeoTIFF files corresponding to the different layers of the product, and a metadata file. The GF layer provides the gap-filled fractional snow cover, while the QC layers (AT, QCFLAGS, QC) provide information on the quality of the GF layer at the pixel level . The GFSC is one of the products of the pan-European High-Resolution Snow & Ice service (HR-S&I), which are provided at high spatial resolution (20 m x 20 m and 60 m x 60 m), from the Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-1 constellations data from September 1, 2016 onwards.

The Copernicus Wet/Dry Snow (WDS) product is generated in near real-time for the entire EEA38 and the United Kingdom, based on radar satellite data from the Sentinel-1 constellation. The product differentiates the snow state conditions within the snow mask defined by the FSCTOC information (snow fraction at the top of canopy - see the Copernicus Fractional Snow Cover product) with a spatial resolution of 60 m x 60 m. In other words, it provides a binary discrimination of wet and dry snow, identifying patchy snow or snow free areas. The WDS product is distributed in raster files covering an area of 110 km by 110 km with a pixel size of 60 m by 60 m in UTM/WGS84 projection, which corresponds to the Sentinel-2 input L1C product tile. Each product is composed of two separate GeoTIFF files corresponding to the different layers of the product (the snow state classification -SSC- and the associated quality layer -QCSSC-) and a metadata file. The WDS is one of the products of the pan-European High-Resolution Snow & Ice service (HR-S&I), which are provided at high spatial resolution (20 m x 20 m and 60 m x 60 m), from the Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-1 constellations data from September 1, 2016 onwards.

The Aggregated Water and Ice (AWIC) product is a spatially aggregated information on surface water conditions of rivers and lakes. AWIC information is stored in a geodatabase, enriched every day from the different Water/Ice Cover products (WIC S1, WIC S1, WIC S1+S2) for the entire EEA38 and the United Kingdom. It provides percent coverage of snow-covered or snow-free ice on lakes and on 10 km river sections described by the EU-HYDRO river and lake network database. AWIC data is stored in a PostGIS persistent geodatabase. They can be retrieved by using a specific REST API. Users can query ice sheet summary information of river segments and lakes (AWIC statistics) together with the geometry and caracteristics of the features on which these statistics were estimated. All geometry features are delivered in the ETRS89 LAEA (EPSG:3035) coordinate reference system. AWIC is one of the products of the pan-European High-Resolution Water, Snow and Ice service (HR-WSI), which are provided at high spatial resolution from the Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-1 constellations data from September 1, 2016 onwards.

The Aggregated River and Lake Ice Extent (ARLIE) product is a spatially aggregated information on surface water conditions of rivers and lakes. ARLIE information is stored in a geodatabase, enriched every day from the different River and Lake Ice Extent products (RLIE S1, RLIE S2, RLIE S1+S2) for the entire EEA38 and the United Kingdom. It provides percent coverage of snow-covered or snow-free ice on lakes and on 10 km river sections described by the EU-HYDRO river and lake network database. The ARLIE data is stored in a PostGIS persistent geodatabase. They can be retrieved by using a specific REST API. Users can query ice sheet summary information of river segments and lakes (ARLIE statistics) together with the geometry and caracteristics of the features on which these statistics were estimated. All geometry features are delivered in the ETRS89 LAEA (EPSG:3035) coordinate reference system. ARLIE is one of the products of the pan-European High-Resolution Snow and Ice service (HR-S&I), which are provided at high spatial resolution from the Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-1 constellations data from September 1, 2016 onwards.

The Copernicus Fractional Snow Cover (FSC) product is generated in near real-time for the entire EEA38 and the United Kingdom, based on optical satellite data from the Sentinel-2 constellation. The product provides the fraction of the surface covered by snow at the top of canopy (FSC-TOC) and on ground (FSC-OG) per pixel as a percentage (0% – 100%) with a spatial resolution of 20 m x 20 m. FSC is one of the products of the pan-European High-Resolution Snow & Ice service (HR-S&I), which are provided at high spatial resolution (20 m x 20 m and 60 m x 60 m), from the Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-1 constellations data from September 1, 2016 onwards. The FSC product is distributed in raster files covering an area of 110 km by 110 km with a pixel size of 20 m by 20 m in UTM/WGS84 projection, which corresponds to the Sentinel-2 input L1C product tile. Each product is composed of seven separate files corresponding to the different layers of the product, and another metadata file.
