Hello everyone,
I'm loading downloaded data from certain countries into a local database.

I've just encountered the following problem:
For the Netherlands, reverse georeferencing returned administrative entities that were missing from my local database.
After investigating, I realized that 17 administrative entities had been added compared to my historical download.

Question: Is it possible to subscribe to be notified when changes are made to a list of countries?

Have a good day.

Hi

You can checkout the history for a country:
https://www.geonames.org/recent-changes/country/nl

it lists all modifications in this country.

We could implement a 'watch' feature for features. For countries, I don't think this would be useful, as it would fire too often.

Best Regards

Marc
