new source for population info

Open toxyl opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

I've compiled a new JSON for population data that I serve on my own server. The file is the same as the one provided by Geonames, but all populations have been updated to the numbers found on Wiki. Territories that have no permanent residents have a population of 0. And I've changed the key "geonames" to "data".

Should we build this into an optional query parameter?

I do like that idea because it also gives an easy way for a fallback in case a source goes down
