not that I know of. > Seems like this would be a fairly easy thing to do, and fairly useful? Definately. Even if geonames.org already offers a fairly useful set of web services (some of which semantic). Also another dump that might be useful for RDFization. http://download.geonames.org/export/dump/ What's weird is how they don't have an RDF dump... maybe we could ask them to make one. -- Stefano Mazzocchi Digital Libraries Research Group Research Scientist Massachusetts Institute of Technology E25-131, 77 Massachusetts Ave skype: stefanomazzocchi Cambridge, MA 02139-4307, USA email: stefanom at mit . edu ------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ General mailing list [email protected] http://simile.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/general
