Template:GEOnet/doc

GEOnet generates an external link to a specific geographic feature name from the GEOnet Names Server (GNS), published by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA). This template uses the GEOnet Unique Feature Identifier (UFI).

'''NOTE: The external links generated by this template no longer work. Please use GEOnet2 (which requires a Name_GUID instead of a UFI) or GEOnet3.'''
