Physical Points in the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS)

Physical Points in the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) This feature layer, utilizing National Geospatial Data Asset (NGDA) data from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), displays physical points from the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). Per USGS, “The Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) is the Federal and national standard for geographic nomenclature. The U.S. Geological Survey's National Geospatial Program developed the GNIS in support of the U.S. Board on Geographic Names as the official repository of domestic geographic names data, the official vehicle for geographic names use by all departments of the Federal Government, and the source for applying geographic names to Federal electronic and printed products.” Physical Points in the Western New York Region Data currency: This cached Esri federal service is checked weekly for updates from its enterprise federal source (Physical Points) and will support mapping, analysis, data exports and OGC API – Feature access.
