Mark Giaconia commented on OPENNLP-579:
---------------------------------------
Will do, but in this method signature List<T> find(String text, Span
sentences[], Span tokens[], Span names[]), we are assuming that the user just
wants to have all the sentences and doc text available inside this method, so
they would have to keep track of which sentence the spans[] and tokens[] are
relevant to externally to this call (because the spans and tokens are not
correlated inherently to a particular sentence with this approach).
Removal of the linkable Interface will definitely simplify the framework.
I would still like to provide an implementation of a georeferencing
EntityLinker, but separate from the actual contribution to the baseline tools
api, perhaps as a useful example of using the framework?
Thanks!

> A framework for integrating/linking external data to named entities. For
> instance, geocoding or georeferencing location entities to geonames gazateers
> can be implemented as an EntityLinker. Initially created ticket to
> specifically solve the georeferencing problem, but the framework should allow
> linkage of any external data to any entity type. Commercial applications that
> do this are expensive, and there are many free gazateers one could use to
> create solutions with OpenNLP. The capability should provide a default
> implementation using MySQL or Postgres and the USGS/Geonames Gazateers.
