The National Library of Medicine TOXMAP beta now includes a Native Lands map layer that shows geographic areas of certain native populations, including American Indian Reservations and Off-Reservation Trust Lands, Alaska Native Village Statistical Areas, and Hawaiian Home Lands, as defined by the U.S. Census.

This layer can be toggled on and off via the Map Contents side panel (see the TOXMAP and Native American Populations page). Many of these areas can be zoomed to via the "Zoom To Location" window located on the toolbar.
