The Getty Thesaurus of Geographic Names (TGN) is a structured vocabulary, including names, descriptions, and other metadata for extant and historical cities, empires, archaeological sites, and physical features important to research of art and architecture. TGN may be linked to GIS (Geographical Information System), maps, and other geographic resources. [from https://collectionstrust.org.uk/resource/thesaurus-of-geographic-names-tgn-getty/]
