The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation.\r\n\r\n\r\nA tribal block group is a cluster of census tabulation blocks within a single tribal census tract delineated by American Indian tribal participants or the Census Bureau for the purpose of presenting demographic data on their reservation and/or off-reservation trust land. The tribal block groups are defined independently of the standard county-based block group delineation. For federally recognized American Indian Tribes with reservations and/or off-reservation trust lands with a population less than 1,200, a single tribal block group is defined. Qualifying reservations and/or off-reservation trust lands with a population greater than 1,200 could define additional tribal block groups within their area without regard to the standard block group configuration. Tribal block groups do not necessarily contain tabulation blocks always beginning with the same number and could contain seemingly duplicate block numbers. Tabulation block numbers are still assigned by using standard block groups, not the tribal block groups. To better identify tribal block groups, the letter code range A through K (except I, which could be confused with a number 1) is used uniquely within each tribal census tract. \r\n\r\n\r\nThe boundaries of tribal block groups and tribal census tracts are those delineated through the Tribal Statistical Areas Program (TSAP) for the 2010 Census. \r\n\r\n \r\n \r\n In order for others to use the information in the Census MAF/TIGER database in a geographic information system (GIS) or for other geographic applications, the Census Bureau releases to the public extracts of the database in the form of TIGER/Line Shapefiles.\r\n \r\n \r\n completed\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n notPlanned\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n https://tigerweb.geo.census.gov/arcgis/services/TIGERweb/tigerWMS_ACS2018/MapServer/WmsServer?REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&LAYERS=Tribal Block Groups,Tribal Block Groups Labels&STYLES=default,default&FORMAT=image/svg+xml&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&CRS=EPSG:4326&BBOX=32.501202,-112.203736,32.65104,-111.448354&WIDTH=1090&HEIGHT=751\r\n \r\n \r\n URL for the TigerWeb Web Mapping Service\r\n \r\n \r\n URL for the TigerWeb Web Mapping Service\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n Nation\r\n \r\n \r\n Polygon\r\n \r\n \r\n Tribal Block Group\r\n \r\n \r\n theme \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n None\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n United States\r\n \r\n \r\n U.S.\r\n \r\n \r\n place \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n ISO 3166 Codes for the representation of names of countries and their subdivision\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n otherRestrictions \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n Access Constraints: None\r\n \r\n \r\n Use Constraints:The TIGER/Line Shapefile products are not copyrighted however TIGER/Line and Census TIGER are registered trademarks of the U.S. Census Bureau.

Segments making up the outer and inner Boundaries of a polygon tie end-to-end to completely enclose the area. All polygons are tested for closure.\r\nThe Census Bureau uses its internally developed geographic update system to enhance and modify spatial and attribute data in the Census MAF/TIGER database. Standard geographic codes, such as FIPS codes for states, counties, municipalities, county subdivisions, places, American Indian/Alaska Native/Native Hawaiian areas, and congressional districts are used when encoding spatial entities. The Census Bureau performed spatial data tests for logical consistency of the codes during the compilation of the original Census MAF/TIGER database files. Most of the codes for geographic entities except states, counties, urban areas, Core Based Statistical Areas (CBSAs), American Indian Areas (AIAs), and congressional districts were provided to the Census Bureau by the USGS, the agency responsible for maintaining the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). Feature attribute information has been examined but has not been fully tested for consistency.\r\nFor the TIGER/Line Shapefiles, the Point and Vector Object Count for the G-polygon SDTS Point and Vector Object Type reflects the number of records in the shapefile attribute table. For multi-polygon features, only one attribute record exists for each multi-polygon rather than one attribute record per individual G-polygon component of the multi-polygon feature. TIGER/Line Shapefile multi-polygons are an exception to the G-polygon object type classification. Therefore, when multi-polygons exist in a shapefile, the object count will be less than the actual number of G-polygons.\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n TIGER/Line Shapefiles are extracted from the Census MAF/TIGER database by nation, state, county, and entity. Census MAF/TIGER data for all of the aforementioned geographic entities are then distributed among the shapefiles each containing attributes for line, polygon, or landmark geographic data. \r\n \r\n \r\n 2018-01-01T00:00:00\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n online\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n Census MAF/TIGER database\r\n \r\n \r\n MAF/TIGER\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n U.S. Department of Commerce, U.S. Census Bureau, Geography Division\r\n \r\n \r\n originator\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n Source Contribution: All line segments\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n 201706\r\n 201805\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n notPlanned\r\n \r\n \r\n This metadata has been modified by removing all the NGDA tags.
