Placename: The Placenames Database of Ireland
Description
The Placenames Database of Ireland was created by the [Gaois research group](https://www.gaois.ie/) in collaboration with The Placenames Branch (Department of Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht). This is a comprehensive management system for data, archival records and Placenames research conducted by the State. It is a public resource for Irish people at home and abroad, and for all those who appreciate the rich heritage of Irish Placenames. The database has been accessible via the [logainm.ie](https://www.logainm.ie/en/) public website since 2008. The data is now available via a web-based Application Programming Interface (API) that exposes the database contents to programmatic queries.
