| LOCODE | The two first digits in "LOCODE" column indicate the country in which the place is located. The values used concur with the ISO 3166 alpha-2 Country Code. In cases where no ISO 3166 country code element is available, e.g. installations in international waters or international cooperation zones, the code element "XZ", available for user assignment in accordance with clause 8.1.3 of ISO 3166-1/1997, will be used. In the next part of the "LOCODE" column you can find a 3-character code for the location. The 3-character code element for the location will normally comprise three letters. However, where all permutations available for a country have been exhausted, the numerals 2-9 may also be used. |
| Code_Name | This shows the names of the locations which have been allocated a UN/ LOCODE. Place names are given, whenever possible, in their national language versions as expressed in the Roman alphabet using the 26 characters of the character set adopted
for international trade data interchange, with diacritic signs, when practicable. Diacritic signs may be ignored, and should not be converted into additional characters (e.g., Göteborg may be read as Goteborg, rather than Goeteborg, Gothenburg,
Gotembourg, etc.), in order to facilitate reproduction in the national language. In countries with more than one national language, place names may be different in the respective languages. In such cases, more than one name version maybe included,
followed by other versions placed within brackets, e.g.:
Abo (Turku) Turku (Abo) As a service to users, names that have been changed may be included for reference. Such alternative name versions are included as a transitional measure after a name change; they are followed by an equal sign (=), e.g.: Peking = Beijing Leningrad = Saint Petersburg The code element will be shown only under the new name. In some cases national location names are represented differently in different languages. This may lead to misunderstandings which can cause disputes in interpretation of transport and other contracts, in documentary credits, etc. For any such differing but widely used name forms that are known to or reported to the UN Secretariat, reference to the preferred name version may be made, followed by an equal (=) sign, e.g.: Flushing = Vlissingen Munich = München A place name may be followed, after a comma sign, by an indication of geographical or administrative significance, such as the name of an island on which the place is located, e.g. Bandung, Java; Taramajima, Okinawa. There may be subordinate entities under a place name, e.g. different airports serving the same main location, outlying ports, freight terminals, etc. If a separate code element has been assigned to such a location, the name of the sublocation is added after the main name, separated by a hyphen (-), e.g. GB LHR London-Heathrow Apt CL ULC Santiago-Los Cerrillos Apt The sublocation name is also listed in its proper alphabetic name order place, followed by an oblique stroke (slash) (/) and the name of the main place to which it belongs, e.g.: GB LHR Heathrow Apt/London CL ULC Los Cerrillos Apt/Santiago Abbreviations used in Column 4 include: Apt for Airport I. for Island(s) Pto for Puerto Pt for Port St for Saint |
| NameWoDiacritics | This shows the names of the locations which have been allocated a UN/LOCODE without diacritic signs. |
| SubDiv | This is intended to contain the ISO 1-3 character alphabetic and/or numeric code for the administrative division of the country concerned (state, province, department, etc.), as included in International Standard ISO 3166-2/1998 and when deemed desirable to enhance the use of the code, or when requested by the country concerned.The country code element is not shown in this column. Only the latter part of the complete ISO 3166-2 code element (after the hyphen) is shown, as a qualifier to the location name. |
| IATA | The IATA code for the location if different from location code in column LOCODE (second part of the code). |
| Coordinates | This column contains the geographical coordinates (latitude/longitude) of the location, if there is any. In order to avoid unnecessary use of non-standard characters and space, the following standard presentation is used:
0000lat 00000long (lat - Latitude: N or S ; long – Longitude: W or E, only one digit, capital letter) Where the last two rightmost digits refer to minutes and the first two or three digits refer to the degrees for latitude and longitude respectively. In addition, you must specify N or S for latitude and W or E for longitude, as appropriate. |
| Remarks | This column may contain some general remarks regarding the UN/LOCODE in question. Usually it gives more information regarding the creation or change of a UN/LOCODE. |
