Hi, i had downloaded allCountries CSV dump from http://download.geonames.org/export/dump/ and i'm trying to find some places, like on this example:
Code:
egrep 'Salvador.*\sADM2\sBR\s' allCountries.txt


I get 4 city registers from Brazil, but i can't be sure in what brazilian state (ADM1) that is. There is a way to know that, only with allCountries.txt data?

If not, how about to extend this CSV with more one column with lower level related place?
