Abstract: The article presents the principles of compiling a dictionary of hydronyms, proper names of water bodies in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), for further work with it on the LingvoDoc platform. The dictionary is compiled using a comprehensive approach from the perspectives of lexicography, lexicology, semantics, morphology, etymology, and cartography. The article describes the methodology of selecting and analyzing toponymic material, the problems of distortion of names during mapping according to the rules of the Russian language, the main structural types of hydronyms, and the principles of identifying semantic features and dividing them into groups. The article presents maps created based on the data of toponym dictionaries uploaded to the LingvoDoс platform. The hydronym dictionary is the first attempt to systematize the names of water bodies in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) on the LingvoDoс platform.
