Description
Yukon aeromagnetic data was reprocessed between November 2016 and March 2017. The data were compiled, merged, and levelled to produce derivative maps for each 250k-scale map sheet. The Government of Yukon produced Residual Total Magnetic Field, Reduced-to-Pole, and other derivative maps available in PDF, GeoTIFF, and Geosoft grid formats.
Use Cases
Mineral exploration targeting based on magnetic anomaly patterns.
Regional geological mapping based on processed magnetic derivative maps.
Geophysical data integration based on the provided Geosoft grid files.
Strengths
Data processing occurred over a defined 5-month period (Nov 2016 - Mar 2017).
Multiple derivative products (RTP, RTP_VD, RTP_TDR) are generated for each map sheet.
Data is provided in three standard geospatial formats (PDF, GeoTIFF, Geosoft grid).
Limitations
Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
