January 12, 2018 to March 16, 2018, this aeromagnetic survey was conducted by Geo Data Solutions GDS Inc. for the Government of Yukon. Data were collected using cesium vapour magnetometers mounted on aircraft flying at a nominal terrain clearance of 150 m. Traverse lines were spaced 400 m apart and oriented N45°E.
Use Cases
- Map subsurface geological structures based on magnetic field anomalies.
- Support mineral exploration targeting based on magnetic signatures.
- Integrate with other geophysical data for regional geological modeling.
- Calibrate airborne survey methodologies using the described flight parameters.
Strengths
- Survey conducted over a defined period from January 12 to March 16, 2018.
- Specific flight parameters are provided, including 150 m terrain clearance and 400 m line spacing.
- Data collection method is described, using split-beam cesium vapour magnetometers.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Data may reflect geographic/temporal/source bias inherent to open_canada.
