About polish-geonames
Simply put, polish-geonames is a collection of names and coordinates for Polish cities and villages. The idea stemmed from the need to simplify access to this data. The Polish government provides it, but in XML format. This XML doesn’t only contain city names and coordinates but a lot of additional, often unnecessary, government data.
I hope to provide a straightforward resource for those needing Polish city coordinates without the extra hassle.
To make this data more accessible, I’ve converted it into simpler formats: JSON, TSV, and sqlite3. To assist anyone interested in how the conversion from the detailed XML was done, I’m also making the parser available.
