The vertical distance from a specified vertical datum to the terrain surface of or

|
Description:

If the feature is not supported above the surface by another feature then the base
of the feature is usually located at ground or water level on the downhill/downstream
side. For non-inland water bodies, the water level is usually understood to be Mean
Sea Level (MSL). In the case of a survey marker (monument) this is usually the elevation
assigned to the marker (monument).

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO 639-3) three character code

|
Description:
|
A macrolanguage is a set of closely related language varieties (dialects) that generally
have a common linguistic identity and a common written form; this may occur when there
is a transitional socio-linguistic situation in which sub-communities of a single
language community are diverging. The language of the geographic name source should
be distinguished from the language of origin or etymology of a geographic name; for
example, considering the place name 'San Jose, California' the language of the source
of this geographic name may be English if it is determined from a United States map,
regardless of the fact that this geographic name means 'St. Joseph, California' in
Spanish.
