First of all: great service! Thanks!

When I use the search option on this page, I get results in a hierarchy like 1. adminstrative division -> 2. adm. div. -> location. (For Norway). When I download the db dump I cannot figure out how to recreate such an hierarchy. I suppose it is not possible...

How do you build this hierarchy and why isn't there a linking field (table self reference) supplied in the db dump?

Cheers!

Marius,

Hallo zusammen,

auf den Seiten gibt's ziemlich wenig Hintergrund-Infos, und offenbar ist GeoNames noch recht neu! Daher mal ein paar grundsätzliche Fragen:

- wer betreibt GeoNames? Vielen Dank an die Betreffenden!

- welche Technik steckt dahinter? Die Anfragen werden wirklich extrem schnell beantwortet. Habe mir vorhin die komplette Datenbank gezogen und muss schwer arbeiten, um "lokal" überhaupt Vergleichbares hinzubekommen!

- seit wann gibt's GeoNames -- und wie stehen die Chancen, dass es GeoNames auch in 1 Jahr noch gibt, wenn 10.000x so viele Anfragen am Tag kommen wie jetzt?

Danke & viele Grüße

Daniel
I have been trying to use the geonames web services with php without much luck, I was wondering if anyone would have any samples, or if not know wher I could find some more detailed documentation...
Tanx for the help..
Hi @all,

i haven´t found any postal codes in the database dump. Is that correct. I would like to have them e.g. for Germany. Is there any possibility to get them?
