Glossaries for GOPP’s GIS development

When data is being collated from several sources it frequently happens that the same term is used for several different features, or that one feature
may be described using different terms. Where more than one language is involved the problem is obvious. But there may be significant
differences within one language, as for example, between British and American English.

This document is an early attempt within GOPP to draw together some of the common words used in planning and on maps.

The compilation and maintenance of glossaries is a dynamic process. The GOPP has established a Working Group to develop a consistent
symbol set for use in its GIS, and other government agencies are invited to co-operate. The advantage of computerised systems and GIS is that
changes can be incorporated relatively easily.

" Glossary of Technical Terms"


These are spatial, cartographic and GIS terms relating to the technical aspects of locational references, technical cartographic concepts, and
technical GIS terms.

"Glossary of Features and Attributes". This glossary will include features shown on a map or in a GIS, often included in spatial databases.
It will be very important in exchange of data between authorities, sources and users/ consumers. It provides for the inclusion of Arabic
translations or equivalents. This glossary is the beginning of a standardised set of map symbols for use within the GOPP, whether applied
manually or through a GIS.

"Format for a Bilingual Gazetteer of place names in Egypt," being in Arabic and Roman script, Arabic and English equivalents. Variations of
spellings will be included. This gazetteer should have low priority as it is only of interest in the context of international activities, or non-Arabic
presentations.
