I am finding that some searches by address return blank placenames. For example, consider this query:
http://ws.geonames.org/findNearestAddress?formatted=true&lat=42.586&lng=-71.745
Why is the placename blank? You know the postalcode and can look up the placename associated with it. You also know nearby placenames. So there are two ways to determine a placename, given a second query. Can we avoid a second query?
NB: This is a rarity. Most addresses, I find, do have a placename. So secondary queries aren't generally necessary, only occasionally...
