构建了威尔士3757个聚落的地理环境与地名数据集,支持可复现的地名分析。
TEMPLAR Wales: A georeferenced environmental and toponymic dataset of Welsh settlements

- 通过稳定标识符关联地名、环境属性与聚落位置
- 包含1350处地名检测与多尺度环境特征数据
- 适合地名学、历史地理与空间分析研究者使用
地名是景观描述与组织的持久记录,但其定量使用需明确区分地图上的地点、词汇标注与环境测量。TEMPLAR Wales 是一个涵盖威尔士3757个聚落的地理参考环境-地名数据集,将可复现的聚落框架与确定性词汇筛选、聚落级环境属性通过稳定标识符关联。数据集包含1350处词汇检测,覆盖1294个聚落,源自24个冻结的威尔士地名元素,保留精确匹配与前缀匹配及其来源。环境属性包括河流与海岸距离、高程、局部地形上下文、土地覆盖及邻近林木覆盖,采用独立高程产品进行多尺度地形测量。数据以四个关系表形式发布,附带字段级数据字典、源数据溯源记录和许可元数据。技术验证确认了关系完整性、确定性词汇重建、环境覆盖文档化、不同地形源间强一致性以及冻结版本的可复现重建。TEMPLAR Wales 为地名学、语言地理学、历史与环境景观研究、GIS与空间数据分析提供了可复用基础,但不将计算词汇检测视为已验证词源,也不将当代环境测量当作历史景观重建。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Place names provide persistent records of how landscapes have been described and organised, but their quantitative reuse requires explicit separation between mapped places, lexical annotations and environmental measurements. TEMPLAR Wales is a georeferenced environmental-toponymy dataset comprising 3,757 settlement records across Wales. The resource links a reproducible settlement frame to deterministic lexical screening and settlement-level environmental attributes through stable identifiers. It contains 1,350 lexical detections across 1,294 settlements, generated from a frozen registry of 24 Welsh place-name elements, while retaining exact- and prefix-token matches and their provenance separately. Environmental attributes describe river and coastal proximity, elevation and local terrain context at multiple spatial scales, land cover and neighbourhood woody cover, with parallel terrain measurements derived from independent elevation products. The dataset is distributed as four relational tables accompanied by a field-level data dictionary, source-provenance register and licensing metadata. Technical validation confirms relational integrity, deterministic lexical reconstruction, documented environmental coverage, strong agreement between independent terrain sources and reproducible reconstruction of the frozen release. TEMPLAR Wales provides a reusable foundation for research in toponymy, linguistic geography, historical and environmental landscape studies, GIS and spatial data analysis without treating computational lexical detections as verified etymologies or contemporary environmental measurements as historical landscape reconstructions.
