In documentation of imported database it is described as "Is the parcel protected under article 97 of the Massachusetts Constitution?"[1].
- massgis:ARTICLE97=0 - not protected
- massgis:ARTICLE97=1 - protected
- massgis:ARTICLE97=9 - unknown status
massgis:ARTICLE97=1 tag is considered as useful, while tag itself is unfortunate.
massgis:ARTICLE97=0, massgis:ARTICLE97=9 are useful primarily as indicator of poor quality of data concerning nature reserves.
This tagging from an external database was sadly simply copy-pasted in an ancient MassGIS import. Nowadays a better tag name and values would be selected.
Land under ARTICLE 97 law protected from some changes in land use[2][3][4].
