Working group on
toponymic data files and gazetteers
To respond to UN resolutions and UN data needs, this Working Group
on Toponymic Data Files and Gazetteers addresses various issues of
toponymic data processing, including the creation, maintenance and
outputs of toponymic data files (including gazetteer production) and
aspects of toponymic data exchange formats and standards.
Issues of providing
geographical names information within national and international spatial
data infrastructures (SDIs) through web (gazetteer) services and
multipurpose toponymic database solutions in the context of SDIs are
becoming more and more important.
