Russian term

линейный объект

Russian to English Law/Patents Forestry / Wood / Timber facilities construction
The overall topic is forestry, but this particular section addresses other activities. The passage gives examples of 'линейных объектов'. I think I know what it means, I just don't have a good translation. Thanks in advance for any responses.

" . . . строительство, реконструкция линий электропередачи, линий связи, трубопроводов и других линейных объектов."
Proposed translations (English)
4 +1 linear facilities
4 +5 line facilities
4 +1 ..and other installations similar to the listed above (this context)
4 -1 infrastructure facility
4 -1 linear objects

That's not a p-to-p "facility"; that's a linear, albeit curvy, object - a highway per se. Well, it's your translation, not mine! RIP!
Jack slep Sep 3, 2006:
Google: Linear objects - 32,600,000; linear facilities - 24,200,00..Don't go to Las Vegas, the odds are against you. Point-to-point? You can go from New York City to San Francisco and never hit a red/green/yellow light. (Continued)
Non-ProZ.com Sep 2, 2006:
TKS for your comments The text inferred a distinction between 'facilities' (e.g. pump house or electrical substation) and 'linear facilities' (pipelines, electrical lines, etc.). I got a fair number of hits for 'linear facilities' from Google, so I went with that. However, should I encounter the term in the future, I might be inclined to translate it as 'point-to-point facilities' (which I think is more in line with the Russian explanation).
Jack slep Sep 2, 2006:
Again to Leila (no offense): Take away the adjectives pipe, communcation, electric line facilities, and tell me what are "line facilities" per se? Such is the English language....
Jack slep Sep 2, 2006:
The main topic is forestry. Did you ever look at a forest where a (linear) swath of trees is cut down to run road, pipelines, transmission lines, roads, survey lines, etc.? There are no "facilities," just "linear objects." (Previous, you're, not your)
Jack slep Sep 2, 2006:
To Leila: You say to me "Таков русский язык" and your right, Russian is not my native language. But the Russian you speak today is not the Russian your parents and especially your grandparents spoke-probably 50 percent of today's words didn't exist then

disagree Jack slep : The Russians consider a geological survey line, winter road, etc. a linear object; they're hardly a line facility. See my Note added

В таком контексте "линнейный объект" подразумевает все сооружения вдоль трассы. Таков русский язык.
agree Dorene Cornwell : Thank you Jack S for the comment but I think this term is sufficiently broad and vague in English to encompass the Russian meanings without any problem.

..and other installations similar to the listed above (this context)

Your context suggests the translation :-))
" . . . строительство, реконструкция линий электропередачи, линий связи, трубопроводов и других линейных объектов."

Part "и других линейных объектов " if rendered 'freely' means '...and other "such as previously mentioned"\similar installations\projects

So, in English i'd simply put something like:

... and other installations similar to the listed above".

[these are not line facilities as it reads like some kind of infrastructure around, say, a pipe line. This is a pipe line itself (or some other 'line')]

Peer comment(s):
agree Jack slep : Yes, it's the linear object, e.g., pipeline, not the stuff accompanying it!

linear objects

Linear objects, which the mentioned items are, seems to be a reasonable and understandable translation.

disagree Leila Usmanova : Во всех Ваших ссылках LINEAR означает длинный, протяжённый, как труба, линиия передачи, проволока, а в оригинале речь не о геометрической фигуре , а о об объектах инфраструктуры, распол. вдоль трассы, вкл.саму трассу-просеки, дороги,трансф.станции

Really?! I don't see any mention about infrastructure, just the linear objects you mention - transmission lines, pipe lines, etc.. I don't see anything about facilities along them.
