"The Gazetteer for Scotland is a vast geographical database, featuring details of towns, villages, bens and glens from the Scottish Borders to the Northern Isles. It describes tourist attractions, industries and historic sites, together with family names and famous people."
"The Geographic Names Information System contains information about almost 2 million physical and cultural geographic features in the United States. The Federally recognized name of each feature described in the data base is identified, and references are made to a feature's location by State, county, and geographic coordinates."
Sponsored by the U.S. Dept. of the Interior and U.S. Geological Survey, this site includes an engine to search place names and feature names such as cemeteries, rivers, etc. to determine exact location.
