Create a place structure object

Usage

Place(
  place_name = character(0),
  place_form = character(0),
  language = character(0),
  place_translations = character(0),
  lat_long = character(0),
  ext_ids = character(0),
  note_xrefs = character(0),
  notes = list()
)

Arguments

place_name: A comma-separated string of region names, ordered from smallest to largest. The specific meaning of each element is given by the @place_form, or in the @default_place_form of the gedcom object if there is no @place_form defined. Elements should be left blank if they are unknown, do not apply to the location, or are too specific for the region in question. For example "Baltimore, , Maryland, USA".
place_form: A comma-separated string of jurisdictional titles, which has the same number of elements as @place_form. For example "City, County, State, Country".
language: A character string of language tags as defined in BCP 47.
place_translations: A named character vector of translations of the place name. The vector values must follow the same form as the @place_name and the vector names must be a language value as defined by @language.
lat_long: The latitude and longitude of the place, separated by a space. The latitude coordinate is the direction North or South from the equator in degrees and fraction of degrees. The longitude coordinate is in degrees and fraction of degrees East or West of the zero or base meridian coordinate. For example: 18 degrees, 9 minutes, and 3.4 seconds North, 168 degrees, 9 minutes, and 3.4 seconds East would be formatted as "N18.150944 E168.150944".
ext_ids: A named character vector of identifiers maintained by an external authority. The names must be given as a URI. See the GEDCOM specification for more information.
note_xrefs: A character vector of relevant note record cross-reference identifiers.
notes: Associated notes. This can either be a Note() object, a list of them, or a character vector of notes.

Value

An S7 object representing a GEDCOM PLACE_STRUCTURE.
