For Antarctic locations, specify type=antarid.

To disable links to the publisher, when the template is used multiple times in an article, use links=off.

If antarid or links is specified, then named parameters must be used.

Since the GNIS site is very stable, the accessdate is not necessary.

Examples

Used with named parameters:

{{cite gnis |id=269051 | name=Mount Whitney}}"Mount Whitney". Geographic Names Information System. United States Geological Survey.

Used with unnamed parameters:

{{cite gnis|269051|Mount Whitney|2008-10-31}}"Mount Whitney". Geographic Names Information System. United States Geological Survey. Retrieved 2008-10-31.

Antarctic locations:

{{cite gnis |type=antarid |id=15152 |name=Mount Terror}}"Mount Terror". Geographic Names Information System. United States Geological Survey.
