Description
Reprocessing of Yukon magnetic data was performed between November 2016 and March 2017. Aeromagnetic data were compiled and merged to produce four derivative maps per 250k-scale map sheet: Residual Total Magnetic Field, Reduced-to-Pole Magnetic Field, and its first vertical and tilt derivatives. The maps are provided as PDFs, GeoTIFFs, and Geosoft grid files by the Government of Yukon.
Use Cases
Geological mapping based on magnetic derivative maps.
Mineral exploration targeting based on processed aeromagnetic anomalies.
Geophysical research based on levelled and merged magnetic field data.
Strengths
Data processing involved merging datasets of different resolutions to create a consistent product.
Four distinct magnetic derivative maps are provided for each map sheet.
Maps are available in three standard geospatial formats: PDF, GeoTIFF, and Geosoft grid.
Limitations
Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
