Cedar Grove
Cedar Grove brings maintained public data, Lumecon collections and the records your organization governs into one project workspace. Build the evidence a grant, benefits report, feasibility study or economic impact analysis needs, then keep the source, release, geography, definition and limits attached to every figure.
A case fails review when a number is asked to prove something its source cannot support. Grove keeps the three layers distinct on the figure, in the evidence log and in every export, so what a sentence rests on travels with it.
Published, harmonized
Maintained public data
Baselines, denominators, trends and geography, read the same way across places and years so a comparison is a comparison. It establishes public conditions for a published geography, and nothing about your organization.
Maintained context
Cedar collections
Comparable organizations, awards, entities, policy and events that public tables do not carry on their own, each arriving with its own source and terms. It establishes what is true around you, not what is true inside you.
Yours, and only yours to release
The records you govern
Program, operating, budget and qualitative evidence your organization holds. It is the only layer that can settle a local fact about you, which is why Grove asks for it by name instead of letting a public average stand in.
Project workspace
Grove opens on the work in progress rather than on an empty page. Each analysis keeps its purpose, its place and the point it reached, so picking one up again does not start with working out what it was for.
Geography as evidence
Choose a measure and the map fills every geography the record names with its value, on one scale with real breakpoints, and leaves plain what the record does not cover. Point at any geography, or reach it from the keyboard, and it reads out its value with the population, period and source attached, so the number and its provenance arrive together.
Evidence that travels
Every figure filed into an analysis lands in its evidence log with the layer it came from, its source, the period observed, the geography, its role in the case and the limitation it carries. Pin a record and place it under the report requirement it supports, and a colleague, funder or board can read what the case rests on rather than rebuild it.
Source
Which published product or governed record the value came from.
Vintage
Which release or reporting period is being read.
Geography
The place measured, or the wider place used as a proxy.
Definition
The measure and population the number actually represents.
Limitation
What the evidence cannot be asked to establish.
Reproduce
The code and rows needed to rebuild the figure.
Evidence infrastructure
Cedar collections add maintained context that public tables do not provide on their own. Open one to see what it contributes, how Lumecon has resolved it, its coverage and the terms that govern the records.
Federal assistance transactions reported for Native nations, organizations, enterprises and other identified recipients, including grants, loans and direct payments. Follow funding by recipient, program, agency, amount and year.
Federal Register notices and agency actions concerning tribes, Native organizations, lands, resources, recognition and other Indian Country matters. Follow published actions, consultations and comment periods across agencies and time.
Bills, resolutions, sponsorship and roll-call votes concerning tribes and Indian Country. Follow legislation from introduction through congressional action and examine sponsorship and voting records.
Material transactions and capital commitments involving Native nations, organizations and enterprises, including acquisitions, divestitures, property purchases, investments, financing agreements, bond issuances, joint ventures and major capital projects. Track who participated, the Native entity involved, announced value, status and timing, and compare activity across periods.
Public records of activity under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, including notices, inventories and repatriation-related actions. Follow records by institution, Native entity, notice type and date.
Documented federal advocacy and engagement involving Native nations and organizations, including registered lobbying, agency meetings, tribal consultations, regulatory comments, congressional testimony and nonprofit lobbying disclosures. Each row represents one entity-linked activity or source record.
Foundation, corporate and bank funding publicly disclosed for Native nations, organizations and initiatives. Follow the funder, legal recipient, purpose, geography, amount and timing while keeping commitments, payments, authorizations and other reported financial statuses distinct.
Federal contract transactions awarded directly to Native governments, enterprises, organizations and identified Native-owned businesses. Examine awarding agencies, recipients, industries, obligations, procurement mechanisms and set-asides.
Reported federal subawards to Native entities and businesses beneath prime contracts. Follow the prime relationship, subrecipient, amount, industry and timing of reported subcontracting activity.
Public records of energy and mineral production, revenues, royalties and related disbursements associated with tribal trust and restricted lands. Compare reported activity by commodity, Native entity, location and period.
Individually owned Native businesses identified through tribal TERO offices, commerce programs and other documented Native-business registries. Records preserve the issuing source, reported affiliation or certification, location and industry where available.
A maintained roster of Native-led, Native-serving and Native-focused nonprofit organizations, with EINs and available federal filing information kept distinct by organization type. Identify organizations and connect them to other Cedar records without treating Native-led and Native-serving as the same thing.
Enterprises owned or controlled by Native nations, Alaska Native corporations and other Native entities, including subsidiaries, holding companies and joint ventures. Follow parent relationships and organizational changes over time. Where records are available, profiles also carry patents, assigned or later acquired, and dated credit ratings, each kept with the entity it concerns.
Parcel-level ownership and development records associated with Native nations, organizations and enterprises. Follow ownership, transfers, parcel characteristics, geometry, permits and other recorded property activity over time.
Tribal gaming across the whole operation: facilities, ownership and affiliation over time, compacts, licenses, slot machine and table counts where published, sports wagering, payouts, employment and labor records, marketing, expansions, environmental reviews, declination letters, litigation and transaction history, cross-validated against Deals.
One license per organization
A Grove belongs to the organization, not to a seat. Everyone works from the same evidence record, with the same sources, coverage and history.
Onboarding is done with you. We anchor Grove to the places that matter, connect the public programs that publish them and set up the records you want layered over the gaps.
Grove stands on its own. In a Tree account, Cedar Impact and Cedar Commons work beside the same evidence base. Compare plans.
$2,500per organization, per year

Also from Lumecon. Use Grove to prepare evidence for Cedar Impact, then attach a completed impact result to the same project with its approved assumptions and source trail intact.
