				<description><![CDATA[ Given the wgs84_pos Point coordinates in an xml file like that: 

<wgs84_pos:lat>18.8</wgs84_pos:lat>
<wgs84_pos:long>-69.6166667</wgs84_pos:long>

How can I know from geonames to which country and city do these coordinates belong? ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Thank you mark!  :) 

But how could you know this? 
I want to write a program that can take the Point and returns the city and the state. 
How can I access geonames ontology to query for the information?]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ It is very simple. If you look at the url then you will see that the latitude and longitude are part of the url: 

http://ws.geonames.org/findNearbyPlaceName?lat=<b>18.8</b>&lng=-69.6166667


You can write the code to build the url from the coordinates and parse the result yourself. Or you can use a library for this:
