Data only in Hungarian, some in minority languages.  

A digital geographical name database is available in Hungary. The version that covers the whole country is equivalent to maps at a scale of about 1:50,000 in terms of the density and accuracy of the name data.  

Unfortunately, it is not free. Data requests can be made via a web interface, but so far, we have always been allowed to give our data freely in framework of an international cooperation.

The data of the Gazetteer of Hungary are considered as national basic data.  The distribution of these is regulated by ministerial decrees. Free access was proposed on several occasions.

More precisely, in Italy, there are two levels of treatment of geographical names: national and regional.

At the national level, the task is carried out by the Italian Geographic Military Institute (IGMI) while at the regional level the task is carried out by the regions and the autonomous provinces of Trento and Bolzano-Bozen.

No. The national toponymy database created by IGMI is for sale.

At the regional and provincial scale toponyms are currently available free of charge only for some Italian territories.

IGMI and Veneto Region are currently working to create regional gazetteers to be merged into the IGMI database. This project will hopefully serve as a model to be applied nationally to all Italian regions. 

For the national level, it is necessary to send a purchase request to the IGMI at the following link: https://www.igmi.org/it/descrizione-prodotti/cartografia-digitale/database-toponomastica

For the Autonomous Region of Valle d'Aosta - Vallée d'Aoste, the official toponymy is available at the following link: https://www.regione.vda.it/enti_locali/cartella_f.asp?pk_cartelle=442

For the Liguria Region the entire toponymic dataset is available at the following link: https://srvcarto.regione.liguria.it/geoservices/apps/viewer/pages/apps/download/index.html?id=2238

For the Autonomous Province of Trento, the Trentino Toponymy Dictionary is available at the following link:

https://www.cultura.trentino.it/portal/server.pt/community/dizionario_toponomastico_trentino

A toponymic dataset was created for the Autonomous Province of Bolzano - Bozen, available in shapefile and PDF formats. You can download it at the following link:

https://www.provincia.bz.it/natura-ambiente/natura-territorio/cartografia/kartographisches-namengut-der-landesverwaltung.asp

For the Tuscany Region, the regional gazetteer is available at the following link: http://www502.regione.toscana.it/geoscopio/cartoteca.html

The data is accessible in the following languages:

- Italian for the national level;

- Italian and French for the Autonomous Region of Valle d’Aosta - Vallée d’Aoste;

- Italian, English and German for the Autonomous Province of Trento;

- Italian and German for the Autonomous Province of Bolzano - Bozen;

- Italian for the Tuscany Region.

The sale of the toponymy database by the IGMI is currently established by administrative provisions.

GV_DRLT is as downloadable data set, view service, search service that can be integrated into other IS, and interactive e-service https://www.geoportal.lt/vietovardziai

GV_DRLT is also reused for the implementation of geographical names data theme under the EU directive INSPIRE - https://www.geoportal.lt/geoportal/en/web/en/search#queryText=Annex%20I.%20Geographical%20names%20(INSPIRE

the Agency for Land Relations and Cadastre of the Republic of Moldova is pleased to inform you that Moldova is in the process of developing the Law on Geographical Names and creating an Electronic Registry of Geographical Names.

This is being implemented as part of a joint project with the Norwegian mapping agency "Kartverket" and funded by the Norwegian government. 

Authorized Yes, standardized No

Geographical names are integrated into essential governmental data sets called ‘key registers’, or ‘basisregistraties’ in Dutch. All key register data and other governmental geographic information can be found on the geodata portal PDOK: https://www.pdok.nl/ (only available in Dutch). The most important data sets are, with a link to their location:

*             Key Register Topography (Basisregistratie Topografie, BRT): https://www.pdok.nl/introductie/-/article/basisregistratie-topografie-brt-topnl <https://www.pdok.nl/introductie/-/article/basisregistratie-topografie-brt-topnl>  (vector data) and https://www.pdok.nl/introductie/-/article/dataset-basisregistratie-topografie-brt-topraster <https://www.pdok.nl/introductie/-/article/dataset-basisregistratie-topografie-brt-topraster>  (raster data)

Section 6(2) (b) of the South African Geographical Names Council Act, Act No 118 of 1998 requires that the South African Geographical Names council through its secretariat in the Department of Sport Arts and Culture develop and maintain a computerized or digital database of all geographical Names. The data stored in the database should be accessible to the general public freely at no extra cost and easily accessible. However, due to certain challenges, the previous database went dormant and the SAGNC is in the final stages of development launching a new system that will be up and running in due course.

Spain, through the National Geographic Institute (IGN), provides this data with the Basic Geographic Gazetteer of Spain, in two different ways. Both free.

On the one hand, data can be downloaded via the download service (WFS) according to INSPIRE specifications. The data model adopted for this service is also set by INSPIRE (https://inspire.ec.europa.eu/id/document/tg/gn) so it is fully interoperable. The link to access this service is: https://www.ign.es/wfs-inspire/ngbe

On the other hand, the IGN also makes available to all users the download of the Basic Geographic gazetteer of Spain as a file in Access database format or as a file in *.csv format (in this case with an own data model) through the CNIG Download Center at this link: http://centrodedescargas.cnig.es/CentroDescargas/locale?request_locale=en (then accessing the Basic Geographic Nomenclature of Spain section).

Yes

The web service “Map search and place-names” (Sw. Sök ortnamn) gives access to officially approved place-names data. The service is available from this web page: https://ortnamn.lantmateriet.se/

The database is in Swedish. The data also contains place-names in the minority languages (Saami, Finnish and Meänkieli) with their officially approved orthography.

Lantmäteriet is the mapping authority of Sweden. Geodata and map services are accessible through e-services from the authority’s web page www.lantmateriet.se.

nsdi.gov.ua(services are not provided).

Authorized digital data on geographical names were provided through the Geoportal of the pilot project (the National Spatial Data Infrastructure Geoportal in the mode of experimental operation).

In 2022, it was planned to create the National Geoportal and provide digital data on geographical names through the services of the National Geoportal.

From February 24, 2022, services are not provided.
