Yukon Aeromagnetic Survey Maps for NTS 116G, 2016-2017 Reprocessing

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 sheet: Residual Total Magnetic Field, Reduced-to-Pole, and its first vertical and tilt derivatives. These maps are provided by the Government of Yukon as PDFs, GeoTIFFs, and Geosoft grid files.

Use Cases

• Geological mapping and structural interpretation based on magnetic derivative maps.
• Mineral exploration targeting using processed Reduced-to-Pole Magnetic Field data.
• Integrating magnetic data with other geophysical surveys for regional analysis.
• Creating visualizations and reports from the provided PDF and GeoTIFF map products.

Strengths

• Data reprocessing was performed over a defined period from November 2016 to March 2017.
• Four specific magnetic derivative products are generated for each map sheet.
• Data is provided in three standard geospatial formats: PDF, GeoTIFF, and Geosoft grid.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to the specific NTS 116G map sheet area.
