Yukon Oil and Gas Land Division Grid System

Grid Area portion of the Yukon Oil and Gas Land Division System, a spatial grid for describing dispositions, leases, and licenses. The system is defined by meridians of longitude and parallels of latitude, with each grid referenced by the latitude and longitude of its northeast corner. Data is distributed by the Government of Yukon via GeoYukon.

Use Cases

• Map oil and gas dispositions using the defined grid's latitude and longitude boundaries for spatial analysis.
• Analyze lease and license distribution across grid areas bounded by specific meridians and parallels.
• Integrate grid area definitions with other spatial datasets using the northeast corner coordinate reference system.

Strengths

• Data is provided by the authoritative Government of Yukon.
• Grid system is precisely defined by a series of meridians and parallels of latitude.
• Last updated in March 2026, indicating recent maintenance.

Limitations

• No row count, column list, or sample data is available to assess dataset scale and structure.
• Data is specific to the Yukon territory, limiting geographic applicability.
