The Montana Geographic Names Framework is an inventory and location of place names, to promote geographic feature name standardization, and serves as the Federal Government's repository of information regarding feature name spellings and applications for features in U.S. The names listed in the inventory can be published on maps, charts, and in other documents. The feature locative information has been used in emergency preparedness, marketing, site-selection and analysis, genealogical and historical research, and transportation routing applications. |
