				<title>How to get the city name information from lat/long values?</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Hello,

I try to get the city name information from lat/long values? With the findNearbyPlaceName I get the nearest place name, but it's not always the city name to which the lat/long values belong .

Do you have any idea to help me?

Thanks a lot]]></description>

It depends on the country. You could try the findNearbyPostalCodes service or another reverse geocoding service:

				<description><![CDATA[ Hello,

'findNearbyPostalCodes' does not work in my country.
I am in Israel and am getting an exact GeoCoding street address by supplying Longitude & Latitude.
However, there is no option to get a city name. that doesn't make sense :)

I tried here:
http://www.geonames.org/export/reverse-geocoding.html
and
http://www.geonames.org/export/ws-overview.html

would appreciate any help regarding getting the city name

Many thanx :)

				<description><![CDATA[ GeoNames does not have postal codes for Israel. You could use the findNearbyPlacename service to get the city.
