Postal Codes -> Problem with Oxfordshire, England postal codes -> Go to message
Lesley

Do you have more specific information about what has changed?
What we could do is to change OX9 to OX49. Would this be an improvement?

Thanks. I have updated the population.

Administrative Divisions -> Belgium - adding admin info -> Go to message
Hi Chloé

The dropdown list displays the admin divisions belonging to the parent admin. If two neighbouring cities have different dropdown lists then because they are not in the same parent admin division.

General -> Offline reverse geocoding on street level possible? -> Go to message
David: Jochen is asking for a solution to run on a WINDOWS MOBILE device. I really don't see how gisgraphy is optimized for this situation. If you want to advertise your project on this forum at least try to answer the original question.

Jochen: This is going to be difficult. I am not aware of a solution that can easily run on this kind of device. It would need a lot of optimization effort and would probably not worth the pain as online access is getting cheaper and cheaper.
If I were you I would try to focus on online access and possibly have a cache function for offline situations hoping that the device was previously online at the same location.

Du musst dazu den parameter 'name_startsWith' verwenden und auf featureCode=PCLI einschränken:

Administrative Divisions -> United Kingdom -> Go to message
For the other places in Guernsey we used GG as primary country code, so I have changed the country.
The file admin1Codes.txt contains obsolete codes by definition.

It has been fixed.

Administrative Divisions -> Duplicate ADMIN1 codes -> Go to message
your download is behind the web interface. The cleanup you mention run some days ago. This means the UI has the code 36 for Noida but your download has the code 27. The cleanup was a batch process and did not update the history and the daily modification.

This would be a nice contribution. I can update the records easily if you have a file with geonameid and population.

General -> Data for Washington D.C in allcountries.txt corrupt? -> Go to message
Roger

The number for Washington are the zip codes. We will remove them from the alt names column.

The Aland Islands are actually part of Finland and they are currently listed as first adm of Finland.

Marc
Administrative Divisions -> Duplicate ADMIN1 codes -> Go to message
The file admin1Codes.txt includes obsolete admin1 codes and therefore the names cannot be unique. This is a feature not a bug

The file admin1CodesASCII.txt contains the current codes only.

General -> Is geonames web services up? -> Go to message
The free service crashed some hours ago. It is up again. We monitor the free services, but during night time we do not wake up staff to get it online. We only do this for the commercial service.

I have received tons of emails regarding the subdomain mentioned in a blog posting. Just for clarification the server is the same and if the server crashed the subdomain will also crash. The blog posting was about the rare case that we voluntarily have to take town the domain from the dns because of too many requests. The subdomain will not help against server crashes.
