Description | It is recommended to include the language tag on the name value. This will be the IETF code @en-AU for most official names. For indigenous names, many of the Australian indigenous languages catalogued by AUSTLANG have official ISO 639-3 codes which may be used as the language tag. The ISO 639 codes are available from https://iso639-3.sil.org/about For example - wbv Wajarri https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/wbv - wdj Wadjiginy https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/wdj - wdu Wadjigu https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/wdu - wgg Wangkangurru https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/wgg |

Description | **Place Names** is an RDF/OWL Ontology to define the structure and relationship of the names of geospatial features (locations). A **place-name** is a text string in a specified language that is - assigned by an agent (person or organization) - assigned a designated 'status', with default="informal" - denotes a natural or constructed location An **official-place-name** is a **place-name** that also - is authorized by a place-naming-authority, often a jurisidiction (national, state or local government) - is a member item in a gazetteer - has lifecycle information (status, dates) Each individual place-name or official-place-name is associated with one **place**. A **place** is - a location with at least a point geometry - which has a specified classification (inhabited place, administrative area, mountain, school, station, park ...). - with one or more names associated with each individual place.
