The problem with converting lat/lon is that countries are not geometric shapes where it would be easy to determine if a particular lat/lon is within that country.
But now I've found the data! Problem is that each country is made up of a group of polygons. Each point on the polygon is in lat/lon format. However we can't really use this data. It's country specific (rather than sub-country, which we need for TZ).
The other problem is size. For example, the polygons for Australia are 2.3MB of text!
Still looking ..
Cheers! Rick
