As a multi-disciplinary field of study and a practice that produces data used across numerous disciplines, toponomy and place naming offer an interesting case study for vocabulary development and reuse.

This presentation will introduce some classifications and vocabularies relevant to place names, and share observations on their development and potential as FAIR vocabularies.
It will then explore experiences and ideas on the benefits and challenges of growing vocabulary usage.
