Information on various aspects of a small location can be available in

This question was previously asked in
MH SET 2026 Paper 1 Question Paper (25-Oct-2026)
The correct answer is

Gazetteer

A gazetteer is a geographical dictionary that gives information about places – towns, villages, districts, rivers and mountains – including their history, population, economy, administration and culture; district gazetteers in India describe even small localities in detail.

A directory lists names and addresses of persons or organisations, an encyclopedia gives broad articles on all branches of knowledge, and a yearbook records the events and statistics of a particular year; none of these focuses on the many aspects of a particular place.

Therefore details about a small location are found in a gazetteer.

Hence, Gazetteer.
