Description:
|
The primary alignment of a feature is its established direction of flow or use (for
example: a road, a power line, a river, a rapid, and/or a bridge). A feature-specific
rule may apply. In the case of a bridge, the length is the distance between the bridge
abutments along the bridge centreline. In the case of a dam, the length is the distance
along the dam crest. If no established direction of flow or use exists then (1) if
the feature is irregular in shape its length is its greatest horizontal dimension
(see Attribute: 'Greatest Horizontal Extent'), else (2) if the feature is regular
in shape then a shape-specific rule may apply: for a rectangular feature, the length
of the longer axis; for a round feature, the diameter.

The dimension of a feature taken perpendicular to its primary alignment of use and
generally in the horizontal plane.
|
Description:
|
The primary alignment of a feature is its established direction of flow or use (for
example: a road, a power line right-of-way, a river, rapid, and/or a bridge). A feature-specific
rule may apply. In the case of a bridge, the width is the distance perpendicular to
the bridge centre-line and generally in the horizontal plane. In the case of a dam,
the width is the distance perpendicular to (across the) the dam crest. If no such
direction of flow or use exists then (1) if the feature is irregular in shape its
width is taken perpendicular to the direction of its greatest horizontal dimension
(see Attribute: 'Greatest Horizontal Extent'), else (2) if the feature is regular
in shape then a shape-specific rule may apply: for a rectangular feature, the length
of the shorter axis; for a round feature, the diameter.

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO 639-3) three character code
that designates the language or macrolanguage of the source of a geographic name.
|
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.

A church that has been specially designated (for example: by religious authority).
May take on a variety of shapes and sizes (for example: as a shrine, a chapel, or
a temple). The term is most closely associated with The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints (for example: the Salt Lake Tabernacle) but may be applied to other
named churches associated with revivalism (for example: the Metropolitan Tabernacle
or the Maxwell Memorial Tabernacle).
|
convent
|
18
A facility housing a community of priests, religious brothers and/or religious sisters,
that is meant to be the presence in the world of a group dedicated to charitable or
preaching service.
The religious orders served are mainly those in the Roman Catholic Church and, to
a lesser degree, in the Anglican Communion. May be used to refer specifically to a
community comprised only of religious sisters. Both religious brothers and religious
sisters take vows, usually of poverty, chastity and obedience.
|
mission
|
6
A religious centre established for missionary, evangelical, or humanitarian work.
May be characterized by one or more dwellings, a school, a church, a hospital and/or
other facilities operated by a religious group.
|
mosque
|
7
An Islamic temple, reserved for religious or spiritual activities.
|
pagoda
|
8
A Hindu or Buddhist temple or sacred building, usually in the form of a many-tiered
tower with stories of diminishing size, each with an ornamented projecting roof.
It is evolved from the stupa but it can be entered and may serve a secular purpose.
They are found mainly in east Asia whereas the stupa is found in India and south-east
Asia.
|
temple
|
15
An edifice reserved for religious or spiritual activities (for example: prayer or
sacrifice), or analogous rites (as in masonry).
In some religions it is regarded as the dwelling-place of a god or gods. Many religions
have specialized versions of this term (for example: a Christian church, a Morman
temple, or an Islamic mosque).
|
minaret
|
5
A tower providing a vantage point from which a muezzin (a servant at a mosque) can
call at hours of prayer.
Usually a tall, graceful spire, with an onion-shaped crown, connected with a mosque.
May be either free standing or much taller than any surrounding support structure.
|
religiousCommunity
|
9
A facility housing a community under religious vows.
For example, a monastery or a convent.
|
shrine
|
11
A place of worship or devotion to a saint or deity, usually housing a relic (for example:
a bone or other body part) or man-made object (for example: an icon) that is venerated
for the deity, spirit or daemon that it embodies.
May be constructed on a site which is thought to be particularly holy, as opposed
to being placed for the convenience of worshippers, and consequently may be associated
with the practice of pilgrimage.

Building materials (for example: stone, brick, concrete, hollow-tile, concrete block,
gypsum block, or other similar building units or materials and/or a combination of
the same) bonded together with mortar to form a structure (for example: a wall, a
pier).
|
fibreglass
|
5
Any material consisting of glass filaments woven into a textile or paper, or embedded
in plastic, for use as a construction or insulation material.
|
metal
|
9
Any of the class of substances that are characteristically lustrous, ductile, fusible,
malleable solids and are good conductors of heat and electricity.
For example, gold, silver, copper, iron, lead, tin, and certain alloys (as brass and
bronze).
|
iron
|
7
A malleable, magnetic, readily oxidizable metal which is a chemical element of the
transition series, atomic number 26. (Symbol Fe.)
Occurs abundantly in certain ores and in meteorites, and is widely used, chiefly in
alloys such as steel.
|
mudBasedConstruction
|
10
Constructed principally from mud applied to a structural scaffold of plant material
(for example: wooden posts).
Effective only in extremely dry climates and usually must be resurfaced on a regular
basis (for example: yearly) otherwise the structure steadily disintegrates under the
effect of weather.
|
plantMaterial
|
11
Plant material (for example: straw and/or tall coarse grass), possibly also containing
the slices of soil to which the plant material is attached.
For example, used in thatching or sodding a roof.
|
prestressedConcrete
|
12
Reinforced concrete in which internal stresses have been introduced to reduce potential
tensile stress in the concrete resulting from loads.
|
adobeBrick
|
1
Brick made of adobe clay and straw, dried in the sun rather than by oven firing (as
are standard bricks).
Larger than standard bricks, adobe bricks require a type of clay that contains between
25 and 45 percent aluminum salts.
|
reinforcedConcrete
|
13
Poured concrete containing steel bars or metal netting to increase its tensile strength.
|
sod
|
14
A usually square or oblong piece or slice of earth together with the grass growing
on it.
|
stone
|
16
Pieces of rock or mineral substance (other than metal) of definite form and size,
usually artificially shaped, and used for some special purpose.
Used, for example, for building, for paving, or in the form of a block, slab, or pillar
set up as a memorial and/or a boundary-mark.
|
steel
|
15
Any of numerous artificially produced alloys of iron containing up to 3 percent of
other elements (including less than about 2.2 percent carbon) and having great strength
and malleability.
Able to be tempered to many different degrees of hardness. Used for making tools,
weapons, and/or machinery.
|
treatedTimber
|
17
A timber that has been impregnated with chemicals (for example: cresote oil) to reduce
damage from wood rot and/or insects.
Often used for the portions of a structure that are likely to be in ongoing contact
with soil and/or water.
|
wood
|
18
The hard, compact, fibrous substance of which the roots, trunks, and branches of trees
and shrubs consist.
Consists largely of secondary xylem, which forms the strengthening and water-transporting
tissue of the plant.
