Database of geographic names of the Czech Republic (Geonames)

Geonames is the database of geographical names of the Czech Republic. It serves as a system for managing named objects. A standardised geographical name is maintained as part of the descriptive information for approximately 165 types of named geographical objects. The geometric representation of some Geonames objects corresponds to the position of the geographical object in ZABAGED® to which the name relates. Another group of objects — primarily land lots, forest land, and local parts of settlements — has simplified geometry corresponding to the placement of names in the national map series. Objects are represented by a vector (point) component with attributes containing additional information about the names.
