Yukon Land Withdrawal Orders Under Placer Mining Act

Orders in Council (OIC) regulations spatially represent Yukon lands withdrawn from disposal, authorized under the Placer Mining Act. The data includes both active and expired orders, with spatial views showing only active data. Users must consult linked OIC documents for specific withdrawal details not captured in GIS attributes.

Use Cases

• Map active land withdrawal areas under the Placer Mining Act using spatial views to identify available territories.
• Analyze temporal patterns of land status by comparing active and expired orders in the comprehensive table.
• Cross-reference spatial OIC data with external legislation documents to verify specific withdrawal levels and conditions.

Strengths

• Data is comprehensive, including both active and expired regulatory orders.
• Spatial representation provides clarity for land withdrawal areas in Yukon.
• Managed and distributed by the authoritative Government of Yukon via GeoYukon.

Limitations

• GIS attributes lack details on different levels of land withdrawal, requiring external document review.
• Sample data and structural details like row/column counts are unavailable for assessment.
• Spatial views filter data, showing only active orders and not the full historical record.
