Created in the interest of engaging tribes in the ocean planning process and to show their locations throughout the MARCO region.
These are point locations of tribal headquarters within the MARCO region. These points do not represent boundaries or sphere of influence. This dataset was created through internet searches and phone calls to confirm addresses of tribal headquarters. Note that in some cases tribal addresses are post office boxes, in which case the point location is more generalized.

The Whitener Group worked with the MARCO Portal team to populate a spreadsheet of all tribes in the region, including their official names and mailing addresses. The addresses were then geocoded to create a point shapefile of spatial locations. The shapefile was then converted to geoJSON format for display on the portal. Note that several addresses were post office boxes, In these cases the geocoded locations are more general and not necessarily the exact location of the tribal headquarters.
