identify projects overlap with Indigenous land

[odscjen]

Background

This issue relates to the following CoST IDS elements proposed in the CoST IDS/OC4IDS review:

Indigenous land

Indigenous land

Module: Social
Indicator: Indigenous populations

Disclosure format

Identify whether the project is located or cut through indigenous land. Use the information at the LandMark – Global Platform of Indigenous and Community Lands on both databases Indigenous Lands Acknowledged by Government and Not Acknowledged by Government (customary tenure or with formal land claim submitted) to disclose the information.

OC4IDS mapping

Project level: If the project is located or cut through indigenous land: 1. Set .social.indigenousLand to true 2 Add a Location object to the .locations array, set its .id incrementally and set its description to “Indigenous land: ()” substituting and for the name and land category from the Landmark database. If the project is not located or cut through indigenous land, set .social.indigenousLand to false.

Proposal

Add a boolean inIndigenousLand field to the new social object (see #403).

Add the following fields and objects:

Path	Title	Description	Type (format)	Codelist
social.inIndigenousLand	In Indigenous land	Whether the project is located in or cuts through Indigenous land.	boolean	-

Example

{ 
 "social": { 
   "inIndigenousLand": true 
 }, 
 "locations": [ 
   { 
 	"id": "1", 
 	"description": "Indigenous land: Section 1 Block III Rowallan Survey District (Maori Freehold Land)" 
   } 
 ] 
}
