[open-geodata] Query API for Open Data - including GeoNames

[Julius Chrobak]

Thanks a lot for your support!

We've been looking at those resources already and they are in our pipeline. I'll keep you all posted on our progress
and if anyone would like to use the mingle.io just drop me an email! Shortly, we're going to publish the API docs and
allow full integration with apps.

Nice!
Short suggestion:
maybe you can integrate your service with this API
http://wikilocation.org
This offers all the pages with coordinates inside wikipedia
At the end of this page you can find also the data dumps
http://wikilocation.org/documentation/

Geonames offers also some API related to wikipedia
http://www.geonames.org/export/wikipedia-webservice.html#findNearbyWikipedia

last suggestion:
openstreetmap api
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Xapi
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Overpass_API

Again congratulations for you nice application!
