So far this summer we’ve been planning out our projects for the coming months. This is a summary of the projects we are working on and projects we hope to tackle in the near future.
Yukon now joins the other Canadian jurisdictions that have open data websites. The Government of Yukon open data website is how we provide a way for users to find, access and reuse our public datasets.
In the government’s last website migration project over a decade ago, we simply moved content from the old website to the new website. We didn’t assess or rewrite the content, we just moved it and continued to add to it over the years.
After Yukon.ca launched in February 2018 we put a freeze on content migration for a couple of months so we had time to address bugs and initial user feedback.
We are continuing to refine the Yukon.ca search experience. Here are some of the improvements we will deploy in the next couple of weeks.
On February 5 and 6 we closed out our first gov.yk.ca department RedDot projects!

We’ve just released a series of 63 new campground and recreation sites pages on Yukon.ca.
Our discovery work into our website users indicated this content is important to people who visit and live in Yukon.
