As discussed in https://github.com/MoritzStefaner/ach-ingen-zell/issues/1 and e.g. this twitter conversation https://twitter.com/opendatazurich/status/685149554405195777, it seems that using OSM instead of GeoNames is a valid option.

In particular, check out @TobWen 's comments in the other issue:

  • https://github.com/MoritzStefaner/ach-ingen-zell/issues/1#issuecomment-172457213

Any opinions, ideas, ... welcome!

Note: In my own fork/repo, I set up 3 stages of OSM data (using overpass turbo), see here: http://bgrsquared.com/placeNamesExp/

where the filters can be found here: https://gist.github.com/chroth7/43ca48597a3a28ef3dbe

Also, I am tracking the comments (if any :) ) here: https://github.com/bgrsquared/placeNames/issues/1

Note: my repo is now fully based on OSM (new live link: http://bgrsquared.com/places/)

Using overpass queries to grab data and some sed/awk/bash action to parse it :)
