Trapping Concessions - 250k from the Government of Yukon details 360 Registered Trapping Concessions (RTCs) and 13 Group Trapping Concessions defining exclusive trapping areas. The data was digitized using the 1:250,000 National Topographic Data Base and covers nearly all Yukon territory except Kluane National Park and related protected areas.

Use Cases

• Map Registered Trapping Concession (RTC) boundaries against watersheds and height-of-land features for land-use planning.
• Analyze the spatial configuration of 13 Group Trapping Concessions relative to their component RTCs to study resource management units.
• Identify areas not covered by RTCs, such as Kluane National Park and Ddhaw Ghro Habitat Protection, for conservation or regulatory analysis.

Strengths

• Contains a defined count of 360 Registered Trapping Concessions.
• Includes 13 Group Trapping Concessions, providing a higher-level management view.
• Digitized from the authoritative 1:250,000 National Topographic Data Base for spatial consistency.

Limitations
