DBTR — Place name (written map) — (TOP_GPG)

The place names, understood as the proper name of a place or object present in the geographical space, represent an essential territorial reading key, useful both to orient themselves in a “mote” geographical space (e.g. orthophotos, vector data “undressed”) and to locate themselves directly near the toponym itself (positioning on raster images or on the mute geographical space, or around an object of the DBT qualified by the chosen name). Place names are classified according to the type of object whose name they specify, but not all types of place names have a corresponding class defined in the Topographic Base Data, e.g. the name of parts of the mountainous territory; conversely, in other cases there are objects in the Data Base (e.g. natural watercourses, canals, roads, etc.) that include among their attributes the name indicated on the cartography as a placename. The position of the place names is actually functional to the reading of an elaborate cartographic and therefore dependent on the scale of representation.地名，即地理空间中某一地点或实体的专有名称，是至关重要的地域解读密钥，既可用于在无标识地理空间（如正射影像（orthophotos）、裸矢量数据）中开展方位定位，也可直接在地名自身附近完成定位——例如在栅格图像或无标识地理空间中锚定该地名，或是围绕选定名称所指代的基础地形数据（Topographic Base Data，DBT）实体进行定位。地名按照其所指代的实体类型进行分类，但并非所有地名类型都能在基础地形数据（DBT）中找到对应的类别，例如山地片区的名称；反之，数据库中部分实体（如天然河道、运河、道路等）的属性中，已包含制图时标注的地名信息。地名的位置设置实则服务于精细化制图成果的解读，因此依赖于具体的制图比例尺。
