  • Map app showing satellite imagery of Melbourne with translucent overlays for Wurundjeri Country (north) and Boon Wurrung Country (south). A bottom panel titled "Melbourne, Victoria" lists the nations and their languages (Woiworung, Boonwurrung), with a note that the boundaries are not official or suitable for land claims.
  • Map app showing satellite imagery near Whakatāne in Aotearoa, with a green overlay for Tūhoe Country and a pin near Ruatoki. A bottom panel titled "Whakatāne District, Bay of Plenty" lists the nation Tūhoe and language Te Reo, with the same note on boundaries.
  • The app's About screen, explaining that Indigenous data comes from Native Land Digital via a user-supplied API key, place names from OpenFreeMap and imagery from Copernicus Sentinel, a note on boundaries, and an Acknowledgement of Country stating the app was built on Wunumara and Larrakia Country by an Arrernte person and that sovereignty was never ceded. A Links section shows Native Land Digital and ursa.nz software.

Currently a rough draft and proof of concept only.

Ngaatja names the Indigenous nations, languages, and treaties for where you are standing or for a place you search, across Aotearoa and Australia. It draws them over satellite imagery, so you see the land as land.

The Indigenous data comes from Native Land Digital, queried with a free API key you supply yourself, so each person uses their own. Geocoding and imagery come from OpenStreetMap and open aerial sources, never from Google.

The Native Land map does not represent official or legal boundaries of any Indigenous nation, and it is not suitable for any land claim. Indigenous communities are the rightful stewards of this data.
