Community Hazards - Old Crow - 30m
Landscape hazard maps were completed as part of a community hazards mapping program coordinated by the Northern Climate ExChange (Yukon Research Centre, Yukon College). Potential landscape hazards were assessed under changing future conditions by incorporating a variety of data sets, including surficial geology, topography (slope and aspect), permafrost distribution, site-specific permafrost data (e.g. ground penetrating radar, electrical resistivity tomography and borehole data), analyses of past hydrological and climatological trends, and future climate projections. The landscape hazard map identifies existing and potential geological hazards such as landslides, permafrost stability and flooding. The hazard map is presented in stoplight colours to provide an intuitive tool for community decision makers aiming to incorporate an adaptation planning framework into existing land use management practices. Detailed descriptions of data inputs and hazard analysis methodology are presented in an accompanying report (available for download from [https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/Reference/78488](https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/Reference/78488)). An accompanying surficial geological map also describes detailed landscape characteristics such as surface landscape features, sediment texture, genetic material, surface expression and geomorphological processes (available for download from [https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/Reference/78488](https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/Reference/78488)).Distributed from [GeoYukon](https://yukon.ca/geoyukon) by the [Government of Yukon](https://yukon.ca/maps) .

Surficial Geology Map Index
The Yukon GeologicalSurvey (YGS) has compiled over 195 surficial geology maps into a standardizedGIS format, providing approximately 80% coverage of the territory. The mapsrange in scales from 1:250,000 to 1:10,000 with spatial overlap between scales.The original maps were produced by various agencies, including the GeologicalSurvey of Canada, YGS, Yukon Government, universities, and the City ofWhitehorse.All original featuredescriptions have been preserved and also converted to standardized valuesusing the Yukon terrain classification system. The compilation includes 4 GISdatasets and supporting documents available for download via [YGS integrated data system](https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/Compilation/33#InfoTab) (YGSIDS) or GeoYukon. A .lyr file is [provided](https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/Compilation/33#InfoTab) to symbolize feature classes and differentiate overlapping maps atdifferent scales. Additionally, there is a surficial geology map index.The polygonattributes captured include surficial material, texture, age, surfaceexpression, and geomorphological processes.Line featuresinclude geological contacts, glacial limits, glacial landforms (cirques,arêtes, eskers, meltwater channels, moraines), and non-glacial landforms(faults, lineaments, landslides, escarpments).Point featuresinclude field station, fossil and sample locations, glacial landforms(erratics, kames, kettles, drumlins, flutings), permafrost features (pingos,palsas, patterned ground, thermokarst depressions), and other non-glaciallandforms (landslides, tors).The map indexprovides information on each map publication such as author, map title, mapscale, publisher.These data arevaluable for land-use applications in the territory, including: mineral andplacer exploration, geotechnical engineering, infrastructure planning, granularresource assessments, permafrost modeling, agricultural assessments, forestmanagement, and biophysical or ecological land classification.Distributed from GeoYukon by the Government of Yukon.
