GPS location Database

Hi,
I am creating a .net application where I have to identify a
location from its longtitude and lattitude. For this I need a GPS
location database.
Please let me know where can I get it.

Thanks,
NIs

Consider these:
http://geonames.usgs.gov/domestic/download_data.htm

If it is IP based consider maxmind.com geoip.

A click on the link "Foreign Names" on the left sidebar would have
brought you what you want.

You should try to read the site. Even if it does not point you directly
to what you want it has valuable information and you will find a link
to this page - http://earth-info.nga.mil/gns/html/namefiles.htm which
has the database dumps.

You might want to try http://www.geodatasource.com for city database or
http://www.ip2location.com for IP geolocation.
