Title

Indigenous Peoples and Languages of Alaska

Description:

Revised version of Krauss' 1974 (1982) Native Peoples and Languages of Alaska map. Map boundaries digitized and stored in GIS. Includes approximately 270 Native place names. Language boundaries can be downloaded as an ESRI shapefile (IPLA_languages.zip). Both language boundaries and place names (including language status information from 1974, 1982 , 1995) can be downloaded as an ESRI file geodatabase (IPLA.gdb). ESRI shapefile with place name (IPLA_names.zip) is also available, but fonts may not display correctly due to limitations of the file format. Updated 2012-04-06.
