Hey,

i figured out a problem.
In the Geonames Database there is an entry with
name = Singapore
admin1_code = 00
country_code = SG

but in the file admin1CodesASCII.txt there is no entry for SG.00 to resolve it so this produced problems in my application.

Don't know if this is a failure or if this is right. And i don't know who to tell this so i give the forum a try.

greetings Peter

Hi Peter

The code '00' stands for general features not belonging to any adm1. You can set them to 'null' in your application.

Regards

Marc
