				<description><![CDATA[ even worse goes for Bangkok postal codes - Bangkok cod 10170 for a district Thawi Wattana and cod 10160 for district Taling Chan both point to Sukhothai, some 500 km north of Bangkok.

http://www.geonames.org/postal-codes/TH/10/bangkok.html 
13. Thawi Wattana 10170	Thailand Bangkok 17.136/99.402
14. Taling Chan	10170 Thailand Bangkok 17.136/99.402

while trying to insert a new name a message:
"error while saving:
country code TH is not neighbouring to TH"

appeares.

btw somehow I couldn't register on these boards (cod not recognised) but would appreciate if you register me manually:

				<title>Postal Code correction for India</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Hello Admin/Moderators,
   I just came to know that the postal codes for "Gandhi Nagar" region in India   has wrong state information. The AdminName1 contains the "State" information. 

Gandhi Nagar is in "Gujarat" state and not in "Punjab" state. All the codes for Gandhi Nagar should have "Gujarat" as an AdminName1.

Please make this correction.

Thanks in Advance]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Hi!

I'm currently working on a project for my university that requires me to calculate distances between places in France, your database dump has already been very helpful to me because I was able to calculate distance between cities, but would now need the latitude/longitude of these postcodes

It would be a huge help if you could provide me with this information:
- Postcodes of France
- Their location (latitude and longitude)
[- The cities associated with them]

Thanks very much in advance,
Thomas A.]]></description>

				<title>Re:JSON-Wetterdaten</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Hallo Marc

Ich würde das ganze gerne einmal anschauen, doch leider sind meine Programmierkenntnisse, insbesondere Java, doch sehr limitiert!
So wie es scheint liefern nur immer eine oder vielleicht 2 Stationen Fehler im Attribut "temperature". Insbesonders bei der Station FQVL kommt es immer wieder zu Fehlern:

    "weatherCondition": "n/a",
    "clouds": "scattered clouds",
    "humidity": 0,
    "observation": "FQVL 130900Z 090//KT 9999 SCT020 29/20 Q1015",
    "ICAO": "FQVL",
    "lng": 35.3166666666667,
    "datetime": "2006-12-13 10:00:00",
    "stationName": "Vilanculos",
    "lat": -22,
    "hectoPascAltimeter": 1015,
    "dewPoint": "0",
    "temperature": "90"

--> Hier nimmt er die Windstärke als Temperatur!?

Ich kenne leider keine anderen Metar-Parser ausser diejenigen, welche man im www findet. Ob die jedoch besser geeignet sind weiss ich nicht!

Eine Frage zum Schluss
Wenn ich von der ganzen Welt Wetterdaten anfordere, so liefert mir dein Service ca. 2530 Stationen. Sind dies alle Stationen weltweit oder ist dies nur ein Ausschnitt? Habe mal nach den ID der Stationen gesucht und dort eine Liste mit über 6000 Einträgen entdeckt. Liefern diese keine Daten oder unterstützt der Service nicht alle Stationen?

Nochmals besten Dank für diesen wirklich guten und hilfreichen Webservice.

Freundliche Grüsse

Christian

				<title>Re:JSON-Wetterdaten</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Hallo

Danke für den genialen Service, es hat alles bestens funktioniert!!

Eine Frage wäre da noch:
Das Attribut "temperature" liefert die aktuelle Temparatur aus dem Metar-String. Dies scheint auch überall zu funktionieren, nur an einer Stelle habe ich einen Fehler gefunden, als ich folgende Antwort vom Service bekam:

    ....
    "lat": -22,
    "observation": "FQVL 080900Z 060//KT 9999 SCT020 30/20 Q1010",
    "temperature": "60",
    "datetime": "2006-12-08 10:00:00",
    "dewPoint": "0",
    "ICAO": "FQVL",
    "hectoPascAltimeter": 1010,
    "weatherCondition": "n/a",
    "lng": 35.3166666666667,
    "clouds": "scattered clouds",
    "humidity": 3,
    "stationName": "Vilanculos"
    ...

Die Temperatur laut Metar-String sollte 30° sein und nicht wie unter "temperature" 60°! Habe dies jedoch nur bei dieser Station festgestellt, bei allen anderen scheint der richtige Wert zu kommen. Gibt es dafür einen Grund?

You should try it first local (e.g. XAMPP).

				<title>Anyone have experience integrating “Ultimate Locator” with GeoNames?</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ I work for a toy company that sells it’s products in several countries. We currently use a software program called “Ultimate Locator” to direct our web visitors to retail outlets in the US and Canada. 

http://www.ultimatelocator.com/

UL claims to support the use of international postal codes provided that the countries database has been added (it comes with US/Can). 

I was wondering if anyone has had experience integrating GeoNames into Ultimate Locator and what their experience has taught them. 

Our current locator:
