Layer: Barren Ground Caribou Water Crossings (ID: 178)

Name: Barren Ground Caribou Water Crossings

Display Field: Org_ID

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: During the process of developing the Bathurst Caribou Range Plan the Tłįchǫ Government and Athabasca Denesọłiné First Nation generously agreed to share spatial data on the traditional knowledge of water crossing locations. Spatial data on caribou crossings also existed within the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre’s database of archeological sites. This feature class represents these three merged datasets. Due to the sensitive nature of this water crossing data, exact geographic coordinates of each water crossing feature are not provided. Instead a subset 10km squared vector grid was created to define the current spatial extent for the merged datasets. Grid cells are attributed with the organizational contact information to direct interested parties to the appropriate points of contact for the dataset. The datasets being described within this feature class are shown without prejudice to identification of other water crossings. The datasets are considered incomplete as they are being added to and refined continuously; Water crossing features exist outside the spatial extent of this feature class. Detailed Methodology:To create a subset of grid cells to represent the spatial extent of contributed water crossing locations, geographic coordinates of the crossings were buffered by 15 kilometers and then spatially joined to a territory wide 10km by 10 km grid. Grid cells identified, thru the spatial join, to intersect the water crossing 15 km buffers, became the subset of grid cells representing the spatial extent of the water crossing datasets. Finally, the subset of grid cells was dissolved by contributing organisation into generalized polygons to facilitate reporting. Created: January 2020.
