Geographic Names Information System
The Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) is a database of name and locative information about more than two million physical and cultural features throughout the United States and its territories, Antarctica, and the associated states of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, and Palau.

Variant names, alternatives to official federal names for a feature, are also recorded. Each feature receives ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
