Hi EZChart;

Can I ask one more question on this topic? Do you provide a mapping of what 
ISO-31622 region names you are actually using fore each country with 
geochart? I purchased a country to region to city database from 
CommonDatahub, but it has a poor match up to what geochart uses. For 
example, look at Malawi: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-2:MW. The 
ISO 3166-2 standard defines regions and districts subdivision. Take a city 
such as Nkhotakota. Datahub puts Nkhotakota in subdivision MW-NK while 
geochart uses subdivision MW-C. Or, let's choose something less esoteric: 
what ISO 3166-2 region would the city of London, England, be located in 
according to geochart?

Ideally I'd like to buy a database that already has these geochart country 
to region mappings. If you don't have one, do you at least of a list of 
what ISO 3166-2 region names you actually support for each of your 
supported countries? I've created this awesome mapping engine courtesy of 
you guys, but now I need to make it function with my database a little 
better.

Many thanks -- Matt
