Abstract

Toponyms are part of the fundamental spatial information provided by Badan Informasi Geospasial (BIG) and are mandated by Indonesian Law No. 4 Year 2011 on geospatial information. New issues like conflicting rules emerged after the Indonesian National Names Authority was terminated and its tasks moved to BIG. Indonesian toponyms experts and BIG also noticed the significant role of the citizen as a toponymist for the collection of multi-source gazetteers and other datasets related to crowdsourced geographic information. In this paper, we outline the process and accomplishment of workshops and meetings that facilitated drafting legal procedures with several stakeholders on toponyms in Indonesia.
