Taiwan Geographical Name Information System edit

It provides bilingual electronic maps, place names and origins of the name in Chinese, suggested English translations of the name, the romanized forms in Pinyin and Tongyong Pinyin of the name, the coordinate of the name and other records.

Bilingual Glossary of International Taiwan Service Portal edit

"Bilingual Glossary". International Taiwan Service Portal (in Chinese). International Taiwan Service Promotion Committee, Executive Yuan. Retrieved 11 June 2011. This website provides English glossary of governmental organizations, titles, and works. There are two databases: “公告詞彙” is updated and reviewed constantly, and provides more systematic and consistent translations. “機關建議詞彙” is no longer updated (perhaps since 2009). It is a simple sum of glossary provided by various organizations and its contents are less consistent, but it sometimes provides terms unavailable in “公告詞彙”.
