import geographical data

Hi,

I have a question.
I hope someone can help me. :-)

I'm writing an internet marketing application in php and I need to
import inside a mysql db all data about countries, district or
provinces, towns or cities, villages or other places of interest in
the world.

Can you suggest me where I can import or grab or simply buy these kind
of geographical data?

Thank you.

Bye,
Fausto.

I'm restarting this thread with a different focus. The project I'm working on now id coming along and will be made to work, and it's too late to start over with a new strategy.

Hi, Does anyone know if DB2 has the capability to cluster in an active/active mode over geographical distances. I am aware of the replication tools and HADR capabilities but this is more active/passive. I know that the capability exists within the Oracle RAC product

Hello, I've some geographical coordinates and I'd like to put them on a map. Example: I've the map of the USA. Once I've selected Chicago, I'd like a point-cross or what ever, on the Chicago point over the map. How can this be done in PHP ? I know you can do everything in GD, but does something similar already exist

Is there a URI scheme for (geographical) map or address location? e.g. something like postal-geographical:postal:123_Main_St,Anywhere_AW,USA postal-geographical:geographical:lat:1234.567,long:987.654 defines an IANA-maintained registry of URI Schemes. These registries include the Permanent and Provisional URI Schemes. The registry is: http://www.iana.org/assignments/uri-schemes.html . I find no such entry there.

Hey, How does one going about their user's geographical location? Is that even a PHP question. For example, a site may say "Find others near Boston", but if you were in New York, it would say "Find others in New York" Thanks.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
