Description:
Abstract:
These data represent the boundaries of the 1836, 1837, 1842 and 1854 treaty areas of the Ojibwe ceded territories in Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin. These polygons were derived from Ceded_Territories_v2.1_Lines using an XY tolerance of 1 meter. Metadata for each line segment comprising these polygons are documented in the attribute table of Ceded_Territories_v2.1_Lines.
Purpose:
The purpose of these data are to provide a spatial representation of the ceded territory boundaries of the treaties of 1836, 1837, 1842 and 1854 as delineated in Treaty with the Chippewa, art. 1, Oct. 4, 1842, 7 Stat. 591, Grand Portage v.
