This national map of flood susceptibility or flood prone areas is based on patterns of historic flood events as predicted by an ensemble machine learning model.The recommended use is national, provincial or regional scale and can be used as a guide for identifying areas for further investigation. The Flood Susceptibility Index (FSI) Dataset, while processed and available at 30m cell size, is not recommended for use at the pixel or street level, given the uncertainty in the modelling process and the variability of results as discussed in https://www.mdpi.com/2673-4931/25/1/18 .For additional details on the methods, tests, models and datasets used to generate this data layer, please see https://geoscan.nrcan.gc.ca/starweb/geoscan/servlet.starweb?path=geoscan/fulle.web&search1=R=329493

Data on flood zones include mapping carried out as part of the mapping program of the Canada-Quebec Convention from 1976 to 2001, the Program for the determination of flood ratings from 2001 to 2004 (PDCC), as well as the mapping carried out after that date by the Centre d'expertise du Québec (CEH) and its various partners.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

Representation of the causes of flooding events in the form of multiple points. The point groupings correspond to the set of locations that were affected by the same event. The inventory of past flooding events was compiled from various public sources and standardized into a common data model. Sources used are included in the data. Event locations have been extensively revised to have one location per location reported as affected by the flood. Flood events for which no location was included in the sources used are positioned on the place name of the location affected by the flood. The event positions do not indicate where the flooding occurred. Flood events that affected more than one locality are represented by a multipoint.For each event after January 1, 1980 caused by a heavy rainfall or a coastal storm , a precipitation analysis document, a precipitation animation and the precipitation data are available. These documents are the result of a collaboration with Environment and Climate Change Canada.Disclaimer:It should be noted that no consultation was conducted with the various providers and stakeholders of the historic flood data. Disparities in content among the various sources result in an incomlete product. No warranty is given as to the accuracy or completeness of the information provided. The absence of information does not mean that no flooding has occurred.

The [Southern Lakes flood hazard mapping study](https://flood-atlas.service.yukon.ca/pages/final-flood-maps) was completed between November 2022 and April 2024. Learn more by visiting the [Yukon Flood Atlas](https://flood-atlas.service.yukon.ca/pages/final-flood-maps).In the Resources section below, you can find the project summary, technical report, "What We Heard" report, GIS data files, and flood maps for specific areas."AEP" in the flood map filenames below refers to "Annual Exceedance Probability", the annual likelihood of a flood occurring, expressed as a percentage.The flood scenarios used for mapping in the Yukon are the following:- 0.5% event (1-in-200 chance of occurring in any year),- 1% event (1-in-100 chance of occurring in any year), and- 5% event (1-in-20 chance of occurring in any year).For more information see [What is flood mapping?](https://flood-atlas.service.yukon.ca/pages/flood-mapping) or email [FloodMapping@yukon.ca](mailto:floodmapping@yukon.ca).### See also- [Carmacks flood hazard maps](https://open.yukon.ca/data/datasets/carmacks-flood-hazard-maps)- [Teslin flood hazard maps](https://open.yukon.ca/data/datasets/teslin-flood-hazard-maps)

Existing flood protection works appurtenances on or near dikes, for example, pump house, floodbox, culvert, gate, gauge, weir, etc. Updated from available Provincial dike survey project data from 2019/2020. If 2019/2020 dike survey project data is unavailable, appurtenance data based on previous data from 2004 and prior. May include periodic updates depending on data provided by Diking Authorities and other sources. See Data Source under selected appurtenance for details.

The Ministry of Public Security (MSP) supports the development of knowledge of flood risks. Flood markers make it possible to illustrate the water level reached during a very major flood and thus to raise public awareness of the risks associated with it while maintaining this awareness of risk in the collective memory. __What is a flood marker? __A flood marker is a physical mark (15 cm in diameter for the standard) testifying to the maximum level reached by a watercourse during a very significant flood on a given date. The flood marker is usually located at a permanent location and is easily visible to everyone, for example on the wall of a building or on a dedicated pole.__Point data set “Flood markers” __ The “Flood reference” data set contains, for each marker, the location, the date of the reference flood and the maximum water level reached. The list of all attributes is provided in the dataset description sheet (Additional Information section).Despite the quality of the work carried out, the Ministry of Public Security cannot guarantee the absence of errors in the data.__Related datasets__ The “Water levels during a flood” dataset produced by the Ministry of Public Security also contains maximum water levels reached during a flood. The link to this dataset is provided in the _Documentation_ section.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
