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 should be used.

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

For the usage of ref, see Template:Cite web#Anchor.
