Hi All,

We're trying to get the following RSS feed spatially enabled through the RSS to GeoRSS Service.

http://ws.geonames.org/rssToGeoRSS?feedUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gjc.org%2Fgjc-cgi%2Frssjobs.pl

Most description elements have a placename as part of the string...

Unfortunately, the returned XML only has coordinates for about 12 of the entries...

We've tried numerous workarounds (saving the feed to an XML file and making sure the XML file has no illegal characters, etc.), but to no avail.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Steph

Hi Steph

This service is rather performance intensive and therefore there is an upper limit of 20 entries per feed. This means only the first 20 entries are even looked at and all subsequent entries are not geocoded.
If this is a one time geocode job, then I can tell you the parameters required to circumvent this limit.

Regards

Marc

I'm looking for a way to get around the 20 entries per feed limit for a demo. Would be interested in learning about the parameters? With the commercial GeoRSS support, does it support more entries?
