noticed this via Jenkins:
[[
The Geonames.org service changed the value range of provided scores from
[0..100] to [0..inv]. Because of that the engine does no longer report
fise:confidence values in the range of [0..1].
]]

two possible normalization strategies are listed alongside the issue, I'd
like to suggest another - I used it a while back on some messy numerics, is
simple & robust:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmoid_function

essentially

out = 1/(1+exp(-in))

for
inf. < in < inf.
gives
-1 < out < 1
as required.

Cheers,
Danny.
