Geoname Sourcing & Translation


Geoname Sourcing

GIS professionals gather geographic names from diverse datasets, including government sources, official maps, surveys, and user-contributed data. These names undergo a rigorous validation process to ensure their accuracy and consistency. Inaccurate, variant notations, and conflicting names are reconciled through expert review and comparison with reliable sources.

Translation

Translation is a critical component of geoname processing, especially in multilingual and multicultural environments. It involves converting geographic names from one language to another while preserving their semantic meaning and cultural significance. Accurate translation enables GIS applications to provide consistent and accessible information to users worldwide while accommodating various languages and promoting cross-cultural communication. East View specializes in Arabic, Chinese, Russian, Ukrainian, and many other languages.
