Canada Flood Map Inventory (CFM)
The Canada Flood Map inventory shows areas in Canada where a copy of a flood hazard map has been collected by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan). The inventory does not display flood zones or extents, but provides information on how to access these flood hazard maps. Depending on the license and availability status to the public, there may be links for download, along with reference information to the original source and/or data owner. NRCan collaborates with provincial and territorial governments to gather flood hazard maps from provinces, territories, municipalities, and other agencies responsible for flood mapping. The inventory is regularly updated to improve its completeness and accuracy. Disclaimer: The Canada Flood Map (CFM) inventory should not be regarded as the official repository of flood hazard maps in Canada. The inventory does not include all flood hazard maps in Canada and does not always reflect the most recent data sources. The absence of a map in the inventory does not mean that an area has not been mapped. The information provided is not guaranteed to be accurate or complete. Please consult the organization responsible in your province, territory or municipality for the most recent and official information on flood hazard maps.Note: Data and maps in the Inventory can be made available upon request to federal and contributing partners.

Teslin flood hazard maps
The [Teslin flood hazard mapping study](https://flood-atlas.service.yukon.ca/pages/final-flood-maps) was completed between May 2023 and October 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)- [Southern Lakes flood hazard maps](https://open.yukon.ca/data/datasets/southern-lakes-flood-hazard-maps)
Community Hazards - Mayo - 20k
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/50309](https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/Reference/50309) ). 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/50309](https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/Reference/50309) ).Distributed from [GeoYukon](https://yukon.ca/geoyukon) by the [Government of Yukon](https://yukon.ca/maps) .

Canada's National Earthquake Scenario Catalogue - Denali Fault - Magnitude 7.4
The Denali Fault spans over 200km of the Yukon Territory, and is a significant source of seismic hazard. This magnitude 7.4 earthquake scenario, centered near small communities along the Alaska Highway, visualizes the effects of a severe earthquake that could be produced by this fault.
