The Place authority table is a controlled vocabulary that lists concepts associated with the localities of the world. It provides authority codes that are based on UN/LOCODE codes. Place uses the classification (membership classification) and the authority codes of the Country authority table. Place also provides ISO 3166-2 codes, as well as geographical coordinates. The European capitals of culture are also included. The original name of each locality is indicated. The Corporate body authority table uses Place to identify the seat of each concept (LOC_id), and the Site authority table uses it to identify the location of each site (loc_code). Place is updated based on the stakeholders’ needs. Contributions to it are accepted following a review made by the EU Vocabularies team of the Publications Office of the EU. Place is maintained by the Publications Office of the European Union and disseminated on the EU Vocabularies website.
