Abstract: Traditional territories of Yukon first nations and settlement areas of Inuvialuit and Tetlit Gwich'in within the Yukon Territory. This data was built using the 1:1,000,000 Digital Chart of the World (DCW) data as the base and the 1:500,000 hardcopy traditional territory maps as signed by individual First Nation chiefs on November 8, 1988 for the line work.The White River First Nation asserted traditional territory boundary in this dataset was updated on November 7, 2024.The Acho Dene Koe First Nation asserted traditional territory boundary in this dataset was updated on June 16, 2025.Distributed from GeoYukon by the Government of Yukon.

Lineage statement: This data was built using the 1:1,000,000 Digital Chart of the World (DCW) data as the base and the 1:500,000 hardcopy traditional territory maps as signed by individual First Nation chiefs on November 8, 1988 for the line work.
Process step:
Description: This dataset was digitized based on the on the 1:1,000,000 scale DCW, where base feature were not present the boundaries were digitized to retain the cartographic representation at this scale.
