Java + Postgis. Even automagic downloading/importing of the data into your database. I got the server running, but didn't take the time to let the full import run its course.

Ultimately I really would like to host it in our own database. If you know any existing solutions for using geonames with postgis and java, I would love to hear about it. Otherwise, I think I've hijacked your post long enough. Yeah, we’re using the webservice since I didn’t really have right any code (used their java bindings).

I'm just geocoding city names, so if that's still useful to you, then let me know. Else if you're looking for a more robust solution, using geonames's webservice or shoving their data into postgis is likely a better solution. KB: no worries. :)

I missed the first password-thing, and my comment went blank, so I re-entered it when I redid the password. And, voila, two comments. Sorry for the duplication.

What all does it do? Right now we are using a service from geonames.org. I’m game, always looking for some good tools on that front. What all does it do?
