Abstract: This data shows anthropogenic polyline disturbance features. Features were digitized using high resolution satellite imagery and orthophotos. Features from the National Road Network (NRN) and the National Railway Network (NRWN) were adapted and included. The following data was not included in the dataset: proposed features.Table 1.

The width of the feature can be estimated in meters, rounded to the nearest whole number.**WIDTH_CLASS: This field employs a classification scheme used by previous contractors. This classification scheme was discussed and agreed upon by Mammoth Mapping and the Project Manager in 2011-2013. The width values are the following.Table 2.

A list of disturbance feature types and their descriptions.TYPE_INDUSTRYTYPE_DISTURBANCEDESCRIPTIONMiningSurvey / CutlineA linear cleared area through undeveloped land, used for line-of-sight surveying; impossible to distinguish whether associated with quartz or placer mining (overlapping or unclear claims information)Survey / Cutline - PlacerA linear cleared area through undeveloped land, used for line-of-sight surveying; associated with placer mining (identified using claims information and/or other indicators)Survey / Cutline - QuartzA linear cleared area through undeveloped land, used for line-of-sight surveying; associated with quartz mining (identified using claims information and/or other indicators)TrenchA long, narrow excavation dug to expose vein or ore structureUnknownUnknown linear mining disturbanceOil and GasPipelineVisible pipeline or pipeline Right-of-Way (above- or below-ground)Seismic LineSeismic linesRuralDrivewayA driveway in a rural areaFenceA fence in a rural areaTransportationAccess AssumedA linear feature that is assumed to be an access road, but could also be a trailAccess RoadA road or narrow passage whose primary function is to provide access for resource extraction (i.e. mining, forestry) and may also have served in providing public access to the backcountry.Arterial RoadA major thoroughfare with medium to large traffic capacityLocal RoadA low-speed thoroughfare, provides access to front of properties, including those with potential public restrictions such as trailer parks, First Nations land, private estate, seasonal residences, gravel pits (NRN definition for Local Street/Local Strata/Local Unknown). Shows signs of regular use.Right of WayFor Road Rights as attributed in the land parcels ancillary dataTrailPath or track (typically <1.5 m wide) used for walking, cycling, ORV, or other backcountry activities. (Note: trails used for mining activities are Access Roads.) Unpaved RoadDirt or gravel road (typically >1.5 m wide) that does not necessarily access remote resourcesUnknownRight of WayA right of way with unknown industry typeSurvey / CutlineA linear cleared area through undeveloped land, used for line-of-sight surveying. A cutline may not always be associated with mineral exploration, therefore, Type: Unknown was used to differentiate all cutlines that were outside of mineral exploration. UnknownUnclassified, or unable to identify type based on imagery, but suspected to be anthropogenicUtilityElectric Utility CorridorCorridor usually running parallel to highway, where transmission lines or other utilities are visibleUnknownUnknown linear feature assumed to be a utility corridor; ancillary data is unclear.

Purpose: The purpose of this dataset is to provide polyline surface disturbance. Data is intended to support a number of planning initiatives at Environment Yukon.
