Nisling River Aeromagnetic Survey with 37,999 Line-Kilometres, Yukon

January 25th to March 26th, 2011, a high sensitivity aeromagnetic survey was flown over the Nisling River area in Yukon. Goldak Airborne Surveys collected 37,999 line kilometres of magnetic data on behalf of the Geological Survey of Canada, using cesium vapour magnetometers and differential GPS. Traverse lines were flown at a 400 m spacing with a nominal terrain clearance of 100 m.

Use Cases

• Model subsurface geology based on high-resolution magnetic field measurements.
• Identify potential mineral deposits based on magnetic anomaly patterns.
• Integrate magnetic data with other geophysical datasets for regional geological studies.
• Assess survey design and data collection methods based on detailed equipment and flight line specifications.

Strengths

• High-resolution data collection with 37,999 line kilometres of magnetic data.
• Detailed methodology documented, including specific equipment (cesium vapour magnetometers, GPS) and flight parameters (400 m line spacing, 100 m clearance).
• Clear temporal coverage from January 25th to March 26th, 2011.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data freshness should be verified; last metadata update was 2026-05-20 16:40:24.739407.
