About this data

Does every mapped area prohibit development?

No. The inventory records different ownership and management mechanisms. Conservation status, public access and permitted uses are distinct; the layer is not a development-permission decision.

Can overlapping acreage be added to find total protected land?

The combined inventory intentionally includes overlapping features. Adding their acreage can count the same ground several times, and proclamation boundaries can enclose land with different ownership.
