Hello, I want to give you a density world map of your datas, because I think that it could be interesting:
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Geonames4.png
You can use it for what you want.

The page contains also the php-sourcecode. A MySQL-database was used with index on lon and on lat, so the script needs only some seconds for 6.1 Mio. entries. It should be easily to adapt the script, f. i. with some "WHERE ...." for special use.

The program was originally created for:

Hi Kolossos

This is great. Really cool!

One question, are you using an old dataset? In the meantime there are over 6.3 million entries in the database.

Cheers

Yes, the dump was a little bit old.

No problem, the density map would look the same with the newest dump. I was just curious.
