Hi all, I recently discovered the site available by the US Army with millions of world geonames (towns, etc) here [1] http://earth-info.nga.mil/gns/html/namefiles.htm
The OSM wiki says that there is no legal problem using it, altought we should put the source tag [2] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/SWDB#GEOnet_Names_Server Here is the XML explanations of the CVS that you can download from the link [1], [3] http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mass_content_adding/Geographic_data/Using_NGA_data/Localization/Description_of_Names_Files_for_Countries_and_Territories_Format/English The question is ? Anybody has developed a script to convert this CVS into a KML or OSM file containing all the towns of a country? This can be very useful for countries in developing countries almost empty. Best Regards. Ivan
