Northern Stevenson Ridge Aeromagnetic Survey Residual Magnetic Field, Yukon 2009

Aeromagnetic data from a 2009 survey over the Northern Stevenson Ridge in Yukon, Canada, flown by Goldak Airborne Surveys. The residual total magnetic field map was created from measurements taken with a split-beam cesium vapour magnetometer. The survey was conducted from May 16 to July 1, 2009, with a nominal terrain clearance of 150 meters and specific line spacings.

Use Cases

• Geological mapping based on magnetic anomaly patterns.
• Mineral exploration targeting based on subsurface magnetic structures.
• Geophysical research on the magnetic properties of the Northern Stevenson Ridge area.
• Integrating magnetic data with other geological datasets for regional analysis.

Strengths

• Survey details are precisely documented, including a specific flight period from May 16 to July 1, 2009.
• Technical parameters are provided, such as a nominal terrain clearance of 150 meters and traverse line spacing of 400 meters.
• Data originates from a government source (Government of Yukon) via the open_canada platform.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The primary data format is PDF, which may require conversion for computational analysis.
