Broad Ecosystem Units were mapped using predictive modeling methods from various data sources (ranging from 1:50,000 to 1:250,000 in scale) and are referenced to the CanVec digital spatial framework (1:50,000). Broad Ecosystem Units (BEU) are a level in the Yukon bioclimate ecosystem classification system that represents areas with similar broad vegetation communities, terrain type (soils and topography) within bioclimate zones. Broad Ecosystem Units are described in the accompanying report "Regional Ecosystems of West-Central Yukon, Part 1: Ecosystem descriptions ".The intended application for mapped broad ecosystem units is 1:100,000 or smaller (1:100,000 - 1:250,000 scale) - interpretations derived from the map products should not be applied at more detailed scales, even though the resultant 30m raster map allows users to view results at more detailed resolutions. With new information, boundaries and designations of Broad Ecosystem Units can change. Updates to Broad Ecosystem Units occur only periodically.

This point layer serves as a flag for known and previously reported locations of species of conservation concern in Yukon, as mapped by the Yukon Conservation Data Centre, when viewed at scales beyond 1:160,000. To view the actual mapped locations (polygons) see the Species of Conservation Concern layer, which becomes visible at 1:160,000. Distributed from GeoYukon by the Government of Yukon.

Each hexagon in this layer serves as a flag to indicate there is one or more mapped locations of a species that is subject to persecution or harm within the hexagon boundaries. Access to the precise locations are restricted, unless there is a demonstrable business need for the information. Users are asked to contact the Yukon Conservation Data Centre ( yukoncdc@yukon.ca ) to request access to precise locations and details on the species involved.
