Re: Loooking for high quality list of current, real countries
Interesting. I wonder why the FAO decided to introduce separate predicates for labels in languages instead of using the language tag. Eg: rdf:Description rdf:about=http://aims.fao.org/aos/geopolitical.owl#Cuba; nameCurrencyIT rdf:datatype=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string;peso cubano/nameCurrencyIT nameCurrencyAR rdf:datatype=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string;بيسو/nameCurrencyAR nameCurrencyFR rdf:datatype=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string;peso/nameCurrencyFR instead of something like nameCurrency xml:lang=frpeso/nameCurrency nameCurrency xml:lang=itpeso cubano/nameCurrency Ivan On Mar 22, 2011, at 10:26 , Boris Villazón Terrazas wrote: Hi Aldo The FAO Geopolitical Ontology http://www.fao.org/countryprofiles/geoinfo.asp http://aims.fao.org/aos/geopolitical.owl Best Boris On 22/03/2011 7:01, Aldo Bucchi wrote: Hi guys, I don't usually do this but I would like some help in finding a high quality list of current ( not Sparta ) and real ( not Mordor ) countries with the following props: * ISO 3166-1-alpha-2 code * English Name * Flag * Local Name ( optional ) * Language ( optional ) * Population ( optional ) * Facebook ID ( would be cool, but I imagine this is harder ) I am finding pieces of this dataset here and there ( DBPedia, Freebase, CIAWFB, GeoNames ) with varying coverage and quality.
