Abstract
 Our Place in the World: The Citizen Potawatomi Nation Track: Ecology and Conservation Author(s): Thomas Tollett The Citizen Potawatomi Nation is a Federally Recognized Native American Tribe headquartered in Shawnee, Oklahoma. The legal description of the CPN's Traditional Jurisdictional Area defines an area spanning from "North of the Canadian River, South of the North Canadian River, East of the Indian Meridian, & West of the Seminole County Line." Originally, this area encompassed 900 square miles; however, through time and various governmental processes, the land actually owned and/or controlled by the Tribe was greatly reduced and developed into more of a checkerboard design. Through the use of Esri's GIS software, they are able to visualize all governmental components on a single platform. This allows greater understanding by the Tribal leadership and more detailed tribal development and planning.
