Hi
I'm new to GeoNames, i try to use it but I can neither download XML files there https://www.geonames.org/export/ws-overview.html or use the endpoint secure.geonames.org.

How can I have access to the RDF data ?
Thanks for your answer

GeoNames does not provide a full RDF dataset download. RDF is only available as linked data per place (individual URLs), not as a bulk export.

If you want full data, you should use the bulk download files (e.g. allCountries.zip) and convert them to RDF yourself.

Also make sure you are using a registered and activated username for the XML/JSON API, otherwise the endpoints won’t work.
