Data inconsistencies

Open dereuromark opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Some states of countries have the same name, but different code That is creating issues on import, since I have a unique column on state + country_id

State Chiayi of country Taiwan

Array
(
    [name] => Chiayi
    [code] => CYI
    [lat] => 23.45184280
    [lng] => 120.25546150
)

vs

Array
(
    [name] => Chiayi
    [code] => CYQ
    [lat] => 23.48007510
    [lng] => 120.44911130
)

State Sana'a of country Yemen

Array
(
    [name] => Sana'a
    [code] => SN
    [lat] => 15.31689130
    [lng] => 44.47480180
)

vs

Array
(
    [name] => Sana'a
    [code] => SA
    [lat] => 15.36944510
    [lng] => 44.19100660

Probably an oversight, and they indeed have at least some difference in name?

Another small inconsistency I found when importing, was:

  • City Ibiza geocodes to state Balearic Islands (IB)

But it is different here both in name and code in the data set.
