The Geographic Names Information System (GNIS), developed by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the U.S. Board on Geographic Names (BGN), contains information about physical and cultural geographic features in the United States and associated areas, both current and historical, but not including roads and highways. The database also contains geographic names in Antarctica. The database holds the Federally recognized name of each feature and defines the location of the feature by state, county, USGS topographic map, and geographic coordinates. Other feature attributes include names or spellings other than the official name, feature designations, feature class, historical and descriptive information, and...
This is a dataset of geographic names (place names) prepared from a California statewide extract of the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS), provided by USGS GNIS staff, dated January 2006 upon request by the California Resources Agency's California Advisory Committee on Geographic Names (CACGN). Modifications and corrections were prepared by the California Department of Fish and Game GIS Service Center, Sacramento. Attributes include unique identifiers, feature names (and proper formatting thereof), feature types (class), and geographic coordinates (decimal degrees, NAD 83). Separate data tables account for variant names and known (but not a complete account of) errors in the dataset.
Place names are selected from the BC gazetteer dated November 2012. Study area boundaries are defined by ecosections or watersheds as determined by requirements for the development of spatial data (e.g., budget, topical influence on study area). The physiographic boundary covers the largest area and is a selection of physiographic provinces intersecting with the watershed boundary. This boundary was not used in the project data development but offers important context to the physical setting of the Discovery Islands.
