How to Record Place Types

     

4.6.1.1

 

 

In the Place Record
To record place types in a place record, follow the rules in Chapter 3.5: Place Types.

     

4.6.1.2

 

 

What is the Place Type List?
As of this writing, values are controlled by the Place Type list. See Appendix F or search the list in VCS. With the release of TGN as LOD, the place types are now mapped to AAT; we anticipate the control of place types by linking to AAT in the future.
