Geographical Names Database (PDNG)

 
 
Geographical Names Database (PDNG) is a database that stores geographical names, locations, historical backgrounds and name of places that have been verified in a consistent format for government and public use.
 
The development of PDNG is based on data obtained from the Department of Survey and Mapping Malaysia (JUPEM) and the National Hydrographic Centre (PHN)and subsequently, the geographical name will be verified by the state Economic Planning Unit (UPEN) before being uploaded into the PDNG.
