http://forum.geonames.org/gforum/posts/list/4.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Herräng 60.1333333 18.65 2706563 SE Sweden P PPL city, village,... populated place 0 EU 26 Stockholm County Europe/Stockholm 0.0004 Everything looks great. I know got country, adminCode1 and city. The external system does however expect a "short version" of adminCode1. That is, they expect Stockholm instead of "Stockholm County". I then made a new query against geonames, and did something like this: http://ws.geonames.org/search?adminCode1=26&country=SE&featureClass=A&featureCode=ADM1&lang=en&style=FULL And I get: 1 Stockholm County 59.5 18.0 2673722 SE Sweden A ADM1 country, state, region,... first-order administrative division Comte de Stockholm,Comté de Stockholm,Stockholm,Stockholm County,Stockholms Laen,Stockholms Län,Stockholms laen,Stockholms län EU 26 Stockholms Län Stockholms län Stockholm Stockholm County Stockholm Europe/Stockholm 1.0 I can't see that I get a "short version" (as a developer of the external system calls it). He's now on vacation for serveral weeks, and I'm stuck. Is there a way to get short version, whatever that is? I hope that I have posted in the correct forum, and that someone can shed some light :) Thanks Kaj ]]> http://forum.geonames.org/gforum/posts/list/1472.page#6145 http://forum.geonames.org/gforum/posts/list/1472.page#6145 GMT http://forum.geonames.org/gforum/posts/list/1472.page#6195 http://forum.geonames.org/gforum/posts/list/1472.page#6195 GMT
