<br>
boundary=aboriginal_lands is not applicable to Australia for at least <br>
two reasons:<br>
<br>
1. Australia does not have a system of "reservations". Before the 1960s <br>
there were Aboriginal reserve <br>
(<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aboriginal_reserve" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aboriginal_reserve</a>). But these no longer <br>
exist for fairly obvious reasons.<br>
<br>
2. Where Indigenous land rights have been recognised in Australia <br>
(<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indigenous_land_rights_in_Australia" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indigenous_land_rights_in_Australia</a>) this <br>
is done by issuing a communally owned freehold or leasehold title. In <br>
effect this is the same as anyone else who owns land in Australia.<br>
<br>
The other concept that seems to confuse mappers is the Indigenous <br>
Protected Area <br>
(<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indigenous_Protected_Area" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indigenous_Protected_Area</a>). This is an <br>
area protected by indigenous people rather than for protecting <br>
indigenous people. The areas have a IUCN protection category so should <br>
be protect_class 1-6.<br>
